Galileo Galilei, mathematician and astrophysicist, is also the father of modern mechanical engineering and experimental physics. He was once unique, offended the Roman Catholic Church and publicly denounced the absurdity of "geocentric theory". Although he was persecuted by the church, he was a Catholic until his death. He once said: "There are two great works between heaven and earth: the book of nature and the supernatural book-the Bible."
Johannes kepler, the father of modern optics, is also an outstanding astronomer and mathematician. His most famous contribution is called "Kepler's three laws of planetary motion". Kepler is a devout member of Lutheranism and loves God. He said that he "always takes God's heart as his heart".
When it comes to the Big Dipper of Mount Tai in science, historians may unanimously recommend isaac newton. His "Three Theorems of Newtonian Mechanics" is of course a warning to the world, and has also contributed a lot to optics, astronomy and mathematics (people know calculus, spectral analysis, etc.). What few people know is that Newton valued the authority of the Bible and thought it was a revelation from God. Newton wrote not only scientific works, but also theological works, and felt that his theological works were more valuable than scientific works. He believes that there is no more reasonable and authoritative subject in the world than biblical theology.
The portrait of today's 20-pound note is/kloc-michael faraday, the scientific leader of the 9th century. He discovered the phenomenon of electromagnetic induction, and thus developed the world's first motor and generator, but Faraday believed that his belief in Christ was the most influential thing in his life.
Many generations of masters of science are Christians, including robert boyle who discovered Boyle's law. Joseph lister, the first person to use disinfectant for surgical disinfection; Louis pasteur, who invented the "pasteurization method"; Gregor Mendel, who laid the foundation of genetics; William Kelvin, a master of modern physics; James maxwell, the master of electromagnetic field theory, and so on.
Someone asked james Simpson, the pioneer of painless surgery, "What is the most important discovery in your life?" Simpson replied, "It's Jesus Christ".
Today, many scientists are still Christians. Church of christ has more than 700 members in Britain, while similar organizations in the United States have more than 7,000 members. John Polkinghorne, a master of contemporary physics, an academician of the Royal Society and dean of Queen's College, Cambridge University, said: "Scientists can explain the structured reality and long evolution of the universe to Christians, thus restraining Christians from jumping to conclusions about God's creation of the world. God is obviously a very patient God who is willing to act step by step instead of arbitrarily interfering with the laws of nature. However, scientists can also be inspired by Christian beliefs and broaden their horizons beyond scientific knowledge. Nature is exquisite and ingenious (reflecting God's will) and endless (highlighting God's will), which shows that everything is a fact created by God. "
