I’ll answer my question for you:

Yes, at the time Christians believed that the earth was at the center of creation. They based that belief on the literal reading of the Bible. Today, scientific evidence reveals conclusively that the earth holds no such place of honor.

The point is that a biblically-generated position on a scientific question has been changed over time by the incontrovertible evidence peoduced by science. The positions that you hold today regarding opposition to evolution, for example, will vanish in a similar way.

And the Pope cares deeply about the Bible.

Really, and when did that happen? How is it that scientists determined the center of that which has no borders? Conclusively.
