I can only think of that example because it’s the only one I know of where the scientist admitted to something divine.

This is probably something I need to research more, because the questions scientists are dealing with are too deep to ignore the one big question, and I wonder who struggled with it.

Not divine specifically but I like the Wikipedia List of Dreams: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_works_based_on_dreams#...

Newton and Kepler attributed lots to god. Kary Mullis to LSD supposedly.

Ramanujan is another great example of divine inspiration.
