Michael Faraday
is one of the chemists
noted in Chemistry 101 that Wes admires most.
He is seen as
one of the most influential discoverers of his time and is largely
responsible for our understanding of electricity. Nearly every biographer comments
on the strength of Faraday's belief in God and the Bible noting that,
"Faraday found no conflict between his religious beliefs and his
activities as a scientist and philosopher...a strong sense of the unity of
God and nature pervaded Faraday's life and work."
When asked if he ever pondered what his
occupation
in the next world would be Faraday
answered:
I shall be with Christ, and that is enough."
