His positing of conservation of energy with its corollaries in order to refute Cartesian mechanism and its adherents formed the basis for the work of Bernoulli, Lagrange, Gauss, Hamilton, and Riemann. Why isn't he regarded as the father of modern physics rather than Newton who didn't come up with any original theories that stood the test of time?

Leibniz LIED about the EXISTENCE OF GOD when he was in a VERY IMPORTANT position. He is considered a bad a person sometimes. The downside to his philosophy is that mind and matter are completely independent of each other, but always act in harmony. Because they are independent of each other mind and matter (the body too in other words) would not be able to be a part of some fundamental primary metalanguage, there is always gonna be stuff that is below pure mind and matter that gets in the way. This is in contradiction to the view that human beings have simple minds, as opposed to them being aggregates, too.
