Yet none of their discoveries were made because of their Christian beliefs. They could have been Muslim, Hindu, Buddhist, Sikh, Atheist, or anything in between: the discovery doesn't change.

The point being that due to their faith inspiration came by the Holy Spirit (the Spirit of Truth) to these discoveries, whereas other faiths are faulty and block clear thinking because they are without God's life.
