Historical founders of modern science who were theists
These framed their science as reading "God's book of nature,".
Isaac Newton — devout but heterodox (anti-Trinitarian); wrote more on theology than physics.
Johannes Kepler — saw planetary laws as discovering the Creator's geometry.
Galileo — held that scripture and nature can't truly conflict.
Robert Boyle — father of modern chemistry; funded lectures defending Christianity.
Michael Faraday & James Clerk Maxwell — both serious Christians (Faraday a Sandemanian).
Gregor Mendel — Augustinian friar, founder of genetics.
Georges Lemaître — Catholic priest who proposed the Big Bang.
Blaise Pascal — mathematician; the Pensées and the famous "wager."
Newton’s Binomial Theorem transformed algebra by generalizing the expansion of (1 + x)^n to any rational exponent n; vastly increasing the expressions that could be written as infinite ascending power series of x, provided −1 < x < 1.
This graphic distills that historic breakthrough and its precise conditions.
Cam Newton just opened up about getting fired by ESPN alongside Ryan Clark, saying he viewed his time at the network as an internship and holds no resentment toward the company:
"I want you to learn one rule about the times we live in right now, if you don't own your own platform you're gonna get overlooked, bypassed and be extinct like Dinosaurs
Ryan Clark gonna be okay The Pivot ain't going nowhere, it's unfortunate what happened to me but I got 4th & 1 I ain't going no where"
As Isaac Newton declared, for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. For what Justin Bieber delivers in casual, oversized ’fits, Hailey will offer a contrasting piece of slinky vintage.

Here's a category breakdown of the 1752 books found in Newton’s personal library after his death.
We remember him for the Principia, but his library tells a different story.
