Influencers have existed throughout history, shaping thoughts and actions across time, from the Middle Ages to today. An influencer is someone who possesses the ability to impact the behavior or opinions of others through knowledge, authority, or personal perspectives.

During the Middle Ages, the Church was home to many remarkable influencers—devoted men and women who advanced humanity, particularly in science. Notable figures include:

-Isaac Newton (1643-1727):A Protestant who transformed our understanding of gravity and motion.

- Robert Boyle (1627-1691) He viewed science as a sacred means to glorify God.

- Antoine Lavoisier (1743-1794): Recognized as the founder of modern chemistry.
