We invite you to view a selective gathering of Roman Catholic scientists who expanded the parameters of God’s revelation through their work. The sample is small. There are hundreds of others that could have been chosen for this gallery but even this incomplete collection should suffice to indicate the commitment of the Church over the centuries to the importance of science – its method, its potential, its discoveries – for humankind.
