I was going to answer, but you already know everything, so nevermind.

If you ever care to look at reality, try answering the questions I posed.

You might also look into politics and the difference between the "official record" and what went on, but that might be a stretch for you. I didn't say that Galileo wasn't condemned for his sun-centric views, I said it was a gross oversimplification to call it a faith-based persecution of science.

Shalom.

I see. Galileo was actually a child-abuser, and the recantation and imprisonment was a plea-bargain? Rather than a major event in world history, like they taught us in high school?
