Spondent Pariter

 * ... that despite actually forbidding alchemy, the papal decretal Spondent Pariter is often incorrectly cited as banning chemistry altogether?
 * ALT1:... that despite its issuer Pope John XXII studying chemistry, some incorrectly believe he tried to ban it with his papal decretal Spondent Pariter?

I can't find any way to work in all the facts -- the pope's name, the banning of alchemy, the non-banning of chemistry, the often reported, and the pope's study of chemistry -- all at once. Even leaving something out it's pretty awkward, but here's a thought:
 * ALT2 ... that Pope John XXII's decretal Spondent Pariter banned alchemy, but not chemistry (which John himself had studied)? EEng (talk) 04:07, 6 August 2014 (UTC)

 * Symbol confirmed.svg This article is new enough and long enough. ALT2 is probably the best hook and I have struck the others. The hook facts have inline citations and I detected no policy issues. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 08:00, 7 September 2014 (UTC)
