BASTA! Hora de reagir contra a paixão que tenho pela hipnotizante voz e fisionomia de Ezra Koenig. Hora de estudar :$
Ninguém acredita em mim! Mas eu consigo. Nem vou precisar vender minha alma. Somente minhas amadas horas de sono e de apreciação da Arte. Não vejo a hora de sair da faculdade e dedicar meu tempo inmteiramente ao piano. Não vejo a hora.
Let’s see if this is actually true. ALL of the following men where Roman Catholic priests:
- Francesco Castracane degli Antelminelli (1817–1899) – Botanist who was one of the first to introduce microphotography into the study of biology
- Roger Bacon (c. 1214–1294) – Significant contributions to mathematics and optics; forerunner of modern scientific method
- Eugenio Barsanti (1821–1864) – Possible inventor of the internal combustion engine
- Daniello Bartoli (1608–1685) – Bartoli and fellow Jesuit astronomer Niccolò Zucchi are credited as probably having been the first to see the equatorial belts on the planet Jupiter
- Paolo Boccone (1633–1704) – Cistercian botanist who contributed to the fields of medicine and toxicology
- Anselmus de Boodt (1550–1632) – One of the founders of mineralogy
- Theodoric Borgognoni (1205–1298) – Medieval Surgeon who made important contributions to antiseptic practice and anaesthetics
- Christopher Borrus (1583–1632) – Mathematician and astronomy who made observations on the magnetic variation of the compass
- Roger Joseph Boscovich (1711–1787) – formulation of modern atomic theory, important contributions to astronomy
- Thomas Bradwardine (c. 1290–1349) – Mathematician who contributed to mean speed theorem; one of the Oxford Calculators
- Jean Buridan (c. 1300 – after 1358) – Early ideas of momentum and inertial motion; sowed the seeds of the Copernican revolution in Europe
- Jean Baptiste Carnoy (1836–1899) – Founder of the science of cytology
- Bonaventura Cavalieri (1598–1647) – He is known for his work on the problems of optics and motion, work on the precursors of infinitesimal calculus, and the introduction of logarithms to Italy. Cavalieri’s principle in geometry partially anticipated integral calculus
- Charles-Michel de l’Épée (1712–1789) – Known as the “father of the deaf” and established the world’s first free school for the deaf
- Václav Prokop Diviš (1698–1765) – Studied the lightning rod independent of Franklin; constructed the first electrified musical instrument in history
- Jean-Charles de la Faille (1597–1652) – Jesuit mathematician who determined the center of gravity of the sector of a circle for the first time
- Andrew Gordon (Benedictine) (1712–1751) – Benedictine monk, physicist, and inventor who made the first electric motor
- Marin Mersenne (1588–1648) – Philosopher, mathematician, and music theorist who is often referred to as the “father of acoustics”
- Robert Grosseteste (c. 1175 – 1253) – One of the most knowledgeable men of the Middle Ages; has been called “the first man to write down a complete set of steps for performing a scientific experiment.”
- Antoine de Laloubère (1600–1664) – The first mathematician to study the properties of the helix
- James B. Macelwane (1883–1956) – “The best-known Jesuit seismologist” and “one of the most honored practicioners of the science of all time”; wrote the first textbook on seismology in America
- Pierre Macq (1930– ) – Physicist who was awarded the Francqui Prize on Exact Sciences for his work on experimental nuclear physics
- Christian Mayer (astronomer) (1719–1783) – Jesuit astronomer most noted for pioneering the study of binary stars
Two of my favorites:
- Gregor Mendel (1822–1884) – Augustinian monk and father of genetics
- Nicolaus Copernicus (1473–1543) –Renaissance astronomer famous for his heliocentric cosmology that set in motion the Copernican Revolution
And of course, my all-time favorite:
- Georges Lemaître (1894–1966) – Father of the Big Bang Theory
This is simply a short list of an even greater number of cleric-scientist. So, you can either beleive the rant of an atheist or, actuall, recorded, historical and factual data…your call.
That’s pretty cool.
THIS!
BRAVO!
Nadar contra a correnteza! Aptidões naturais e ambições totalmente despezados.
-Olá mundo dos números!
- Mate-se primeiro.
Aptidões naturais e ambições R.I.P.
- Bem vinda!
Deus, me ajude.
Por que tanta ingratidão da minha parte? Afinal, quantas pessoas são felizes? Por que eu seria uma exceção?
Defeito em minha consciência. Por que tarda a chegada do arrependimento?
Deus, traga-me o arrenpedimento, para que eu possa Te pedir perdão!
