OHHHH,, well thats better! Like Jesus said,, if you find a nonbeliever, murder him.,

No one said that executing Bruno was a good idea. Again, the point is that Bruno was not executed for anything to do with his scientific work. It was his theological views that got him executed. The Church was not, is not, will never be anti-science. The Church is the reason we have science.
