Someone puts me under house arrest and I'll consider it meaningful persecution. True that others got much worse as you say, but that doesn't really change the issue. Separation of church and state is a GOOD thing.

Separation of church and state is a GOOD thing.

Except for the fact that Galileo was working for the church at the time (to use a modern concept to describe an ancient arrangement).

Would it be wrong for a modern employer to use legal means to restrict a researcher from publicly mischaracterizing the results of research done on company time?

I wish somebody would put ME under house arrest. I could use the rest.
