There were lots of people in Bruno's time who thought that heliocentricism was likely, and the only one who got punished for it was the one who wanted to overthrow the church.

Name some of these "lots" of people. Galileo, Copernicus, and ...? Note that Galileo was indeed punished for the heresy of asserting heliocentricity.

I can't blame you for not addressing any of my other points. I wouldn't want to defend such a weak position as yours either.
