      Given how the thread started, maybe I shouldn't be taking peoples responses at face value .... but for the benefit of those who missed this, "The Onion" is a satirical publication.

        Oh now you've done it Rebecca

        OK Chico, the fact that the people you mention were christian had nothing to do with their inventions/discoveries/observations.
        Why not?

                No they didn't.

                Faraday, Davy, Plank, Maxwell and and others were Christians and some had a desire to prove the "existence of god" thought their research, but their empirical formulae were based on observation, not superstition.

                The Onion is a satirical website. Think of it as a candle for the Christian moth.

                    Chico, where is God in the theories behind Sir Isaac Newton's work? His gravitational theory is completely God-less, unless I have missed something!
                    Chico, what time is it?
