Louis Pasteur was putatively a Roman Catholic, probably a Deist or agnostic.
and some say Anthony Van Leeuwenhoek a Calvinist
both are thought of as the father of microbiology by some.

I would think it would be Pasteur.
He would likely have been a French Catholic, but possibly as Deist instead of Theist.
At that time in France he would not have had much choice except to be a Catholic though.
Now I will check my answer.
Yeah, Pasteur fits very well. Standard French Catholic.
But Catholics don't fight science much any more. After Galleleo they ended up getting their buts kicked by science and lost ti the reformation. They were quite happy to side with the sciences after the early 1700s to keep themselves from getting made even more foolish looking. They still have a few things they get weird about, but they are quite content to be left with the God of the Gaps.
