(m)\n\nRobert Wadlow — The world's tallest man.

What do you want to know?  He is considered the father of experimental chemistry.  He is credited with describing the Law of Conservation of Mass.

einstein. he just sat in his chair and thought of theories. he did experiments in his mind

I would say Tim Berners Lee, who basically invented the World Wide Web.  He also created the first web browser and currently directs the World Wide Web Consortium.

He was the first to come up with a good system of classifying all life on earth. His system, with variations, is still in wide use today. \n\nVery Important Person to scientists!

How about Madame Curie...would that be helpful? I was going to suggest Charles Darwin, but noticed someone already answered...

He was a chemist who discovered guncotton and ozone.  I'm sure Wiki would have an entry on him, and maybe some actual refrences

Rudolph Virchow?\n\nhttp://scienceworld.wolfram.com/biography/Virchow.html\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rudolf_Virchow

Einstein.\n\n\n\nEinstein was just a God in human form. The man came up with some of the most influential ideas of the millennia, without being able to test his ideas. He just used the power of his imagination, and was right on almost all accounts.\n\n\nHe could figure out anything. He has his fingerprints in just about every major discovery involving physics during the early 20th century. If it had of been possible back then, he should be have been cloned, because he probably would have finally solved the theory of everything.\n\n\nEinstein was far beyond Newton in terms of thought. Newton was extremely influential, and spent probably every waking hour of his life on his work, dieing a virgin. However, his creative ideas stand nowhere near Einstein. Atleast in terms of creative physics.

Humphrey Microscope.\n\nSeriously, it's usually credited to Leewenhoek.

No, I expect he'd find it facinating.  Scientists by their very nature are open minded.  They know things to be true if they are faced with the facts and true scientists can admit when they are wrong without feeling they are losing face.  Not that I think he is wrong.

Agostine Monk and Abbot, Gregor Mendel, did more to advance the science of change and evolution with his plant studies.  He's considered the Father of Genetics.  He actually made "intellgent design" in plants possible.\n\nThen there's Father Georges-Henri Lemaître a Roman Catholic priest, honorary prelate, professor of physics and astronomer.  He gave us the Big Bang theory.\n\nIsn't it funny how the actually scientific theories are conjured up by Religious Priests.

I think that there are more than 1 %  of scientist that believe in god, maybe even creationism. But yeah, it would be good to see him stand up and say he believes the world is only 6,000 years old, and them even more people would realize how kooky he is...hehe

Stephen Hawking, who made significant discoveries in Cosmology, specifically related to black holes, the history of the universe, the theory of relativity, and the "theory of everything."
