More From Jay Griffiths

The church at the time was much more faithful to reason than galileo himself, and also took into consideration the ethical and social consequences of galileo's doctrine. its verdict against galileo was rational and just.
Faithful Religion Atheism
The heretic is always better dead. and mortal eyes cannot distinguish the saint from the heretic.
Eye Saint Heretic

It is in the name of moses that bellarmin thunderstrikes galileo; and this great vulgarizer of the great seeker copernicus, galileo, the old man of truth, the magian of the heavens, was reduced to repeating on his knees word for word after the inquisitor this formula of shame: "corde sincera et fide non ficta abjuro maledico et detestor supradictos errores et hereses." falsehood put an ass's hood on science.
