Quote:Long-lost letter from Galileo reveals new details about his battle with the church
Quote:In the letter’s seven pages, Galileo writes to his friend Benedetto Castelli, a mathematician at the University of Pisa, on Dec. 21, 1613, arguing that science should be free from the constraints of theology. He signs the letter “G.G.”
Galileo would eventually be condemned to house arrest by the Inquisition in July 1633 for his beliefs.
This is what happens when you give religious dickheads any kind of temporal power.
Now, now. The Church did finally admit they were wrong.
359 years later.
