Alessandro Volta was a highly skilled (for his time) and studious physicist and chemist. He was the first to isolate methane and is also credited with inventing the battery. Volta was a devout Catholic, though was accused by many of being irreligious and "ignoring the call of the Church." He strongly denied the accusations, though admitting, "...failed in the performance of those good works which are the mark of a Catholic Christian." He went on to say he spent a good deal of time studying the religion and had "never wavered" in his faith.
