You start out with a false statement. He was never burned. Not even a little bit.
am not impressed by this piece. Anyone who doesn’t know who Galileo was and can’t keep him straight from Giordano Bruno who actually was burned at the stake isn’t qualified to say anything about the true story of anybody. And secondly it’s been 600 years so most of it is hearsay and not admissible in court. And thirdly it resembles a huge wall of words which you can’t be sure are even true since a glaring error in the very beginning throws off any sense of credibility.
Hmmm...maybe you guys should read a post in its entirety before judging it? Just sayin'...
Hmmm... you start your post with a lie. Why should we even read the rest of it?
Well, they even missed the start of that statement.
“The story goes that....” makes it pretty clear that you later will be debunking the story.
