That statement couldn’t be more wrong, as we will prove repeatedly in this book, showing that many of the brightest scientists in history have been staunch believers in God as Creator. Among them are: Francis Collins, longtime director of the Human Genome Project; Professor Bill Phillips, winner of the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1997; Sir Brian Heap FRS, former Vice-President of the Royal Society, and Sir John Houghton FRS, former director of the Meteorological Office, co-Chair of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change and currently director of the John Ray Initiative on the Environment.
