Georges Cuvier (1769 - 1832)
 
Another Bible believing scientist was Georges Cuvier who was a great French anatomist and considered to be one of the chief architects of the science of paleontology. He believed that different fossils in strata was due to catastrophes, with the Flood being the last in a series. He was a firm creationist and participated (and won) debates in creation vs evolution.
