I have said twice now that they should not have burned him.

I addressed this already.
He was executed for going to Italy and calling for the overthrow of the church, to replace it with strange superstitious ideas based on fake Egyptian tablets.
Lots of people were writing freely about Hermes Trismegistus and similar ideas who were not burned at the stake.

You write personal insults that are assertions unsupported by facts.
Tim O'Neill doesn't.
You are the hack, not him.
If you are at all serious in your claim here (which I don't believe you are) please cite evidence.
