There is no biblical or Christ based defense of what they did to him ***400 years ago!*** Better that they should just own it and emphatically say today’s Roman church wouldn’t do that. I see no need to apologize, though JPII already basically did. Galileo is long gone, and so are the thugs who tried him.
Then I would point out Georges Lemaitre, a Belgian Priest who was responsible for the big bang theory. I would direct further inquiries to the Vatican observatory in Arizona.

The modern Roman church’s actual activity regarding science today is the best apology Galileo would have ever asked for. That mean’s far more than some farcical apology. I’d bet a paycheck on it.

No argument.
