It was born again, Bible believing, creationists who established the founations of modern science. Why?
Because they were free thinkers, inspired by the Bible and unshackled by the dogma of their day. These include:
Lister, Pasteur, Newton, Boyle, Cuvier, Babbage, Lord Raleigh, Newton, Maxwell, Faraday, Fleming, Kelvin, Fabre, Faraday, Stokes, Herschel, Boyle, Mendel, Aggisiz, Simpson, Leonardo da Vinci, Maury, Pascal, Ramsay, Rayleigh, Ray, Reimann, Brewster, Woodward, Virchow, Kepler, Joule, Maxwell, Steno, Linnaeus, Kelvin, Davy, Cuiver.
These were “heroes of the faith,” each of whom made major scientific discoveries that changed the world for the better.

Let me answer that sweetie.
Because before the 1800's, the only education you could GET was at a Christian university. There WERE no alternatives to being Christian- Therefore, all scientists were Christians.

Hebrews 11 has a list of (blind) faith heroes of X-ians,
and it's notably a h-all of shame, not a h-all of fame;
"these all died" and "received not the promise",
so God hath provided some better thing for us,
than blind faith in the law: ministration of death.
The GRACE of our Lord Jesus Christ with you all. Amen.

I wouldn't put too much stock in what religion people said they were in times when you would be killed for not being a member of the official religion.
