Robert Boyle, a Christian virtuoso

Publiée: 2022-01-05

Résumé

Robert Boyle was one of the greatest scientists of the 17th century, a scientist and a theologian who used his scholarly competence in the service of Christian religion. He particularly cherished the physico-theological proof of the existence and majesty of God by deriving God’s attributes from the orderliness, complexity, and the beauty of the universe in general and all of its elements.
