Yes, anyone who knows Faraday knows he was a Giant!

So no. You don’t have anything specific to suggest that his Biblical “literalism” extended to denying experimental Scientific data or that he based any of his physical constants upon anything but empirical data.

And he was a creationist.

I don't recall ever suggesting that Faraday's biblical literalism caused him to deny experimental data. But we do know that his biblical literalism inspired much of his scientific research. Indeed, according to many of his biographers, his biblical fundamentalism is what made him so bold in his predictions with respect to his unified theory of electricity and magnetism.

Bottom line: Creation Scientists have a huge and distinguished scientific pedigree!
