Charles Babbage, Father of the Modern Computer 1791-1871
by Sean Meek, Director of Project CREATION
Evolutionists like to cloak their fairytale of evolutionism in the
successes of modern science, but Bible believing
Creationists have made virtually all of the great discoveries of
science. Charles Babbage was one such scientist. He was founder of both
Royal Astronomical Society and the British Association's Statistical
Society. His inventions ran the gamut from the heliograph opthalmoscope
to the cowcatcher. He began working on the first computer, called an
Analytical Engine, in 1834 using punch cards and ultimately designed
the logical structure of the modern computer. Babbage was a Christian
who believed in the truthfulness of the Bible and wrote "Miracles are
not the breach of established laws, but . . . indicate the existence of
far higher laws". Charles Babbage was one of the Creationists Who
Created Science.
