Gregor Mendel, if I understood your question correctly.

I believe you are referring to Gregor Mendel who lived in the 1800's.
Genetics is sometimes called Mendelian Genetics.

The problem, though, is that plant breeding does not explain the origins of life.
18th century science had no concept of DNA, which is present in the cell. The presence of DNA, which controls the makeup of every living thing, is unexplainable by Darwinism.

Gregor Mendel
But he was Austrian (Augustinian?)
"Between 1856 and 1863, he cultivated and tested some 28,000 pea plants."

You mean to tell me it was a christian who was the founder of genetics? If you listen to all these atheists and evolutionists you'd think every christian is a brain dead flat-earther.
