List Of Christian Thinkers In Science
This list is about the relationship between religion and science, but is specific to Christian history. This is only supplementary to the issue as lists are by themselves not equipped to answer questions on this topic. The list's purpose is to act as a guide: names, annotations, and links are provided for use in further study on this topic.
This list is non-exhaustive and is limited (due to space constraints) to those scientists who also contributed to Christian theology or some other type of religious thinking. There are two specific groups of Christians who made significant contributions to science that are not covered in this list : 1 Catholic scientists who are members of the Society of Jesus: these can be found in the List of Jesuit scientists. 2) Scientists who are members of the Religious Society of Friends: these are listed in Quakers in science.

“A man’s interest in a single bluebird is worth more than a complete but dry list of the fauna and flora of a town.”

“Mr. Alcott seems to have sat down for the winter. He has got Plato and other books to read. He is as large-featured and hospitable to traveling thoughts and thinkers as ever; but with the same Connecticut philosophy as ever, mingled with what is better. If he would only stand upright and toe the line!—though he were to put off several degrees of largeness, and put on a considerable degree of littleness. After all, I think we must call him particularly your man.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“I’ve been asked to give some words of advice for young women entering library/information science education. Does anyone ever take advice? The advice we give is usually what we would do or would have done if we had the chance, and the advice that’s taken, if ever, is often what we wanted to hear in the first place.”
—Phyllis Dain (b. 1930)
