>>This church excommunicated Galileo for his observations the sun is in the center
Wrong. This happened because Galileo refused to treat his observations as theories. Instead he went around teaching them as irrefutable fact.
Had Galeleo simply admitted his theory was a theory and treated it as such, he would have been fine. The church was not opposed to his theory, the Church just wanted to be sure it was in fact, the truth.
This was an issue of obedience to the church about how his theory was presented, not about the theory itself. The church never demand that he recant his theory, only that he treat it as such.
Well the sun is in the center and thats a fact. Your spin on this is farcical. The Church leaders were unknowingly in ignorance of the scientific facts, and as such, rejected his scientific observations out of hand and with close-minded malice and hubris, wrongfully tossed him out of the Church. Goalie couldn't have postulated a theory because his observations closed the issue and to pay homage to the unknowing Church leaders and promote a lie would have been highly unethical on his part. One doesn't subvert thuth in the face of ignorance and remain on the moral high ground.
