Entry: The Galileo Myth Link: http://www.takimag.com/site/article/the_galileo_myth#15748 Post contents: It is clear the Galileo Case is all about attacking the Catholic Church and I find it interesting the attacks come from both protestants and the More-Catholic-Than-The-the-Pope schismatics. Now there's a league for ya :) As for Protestants attacking the Catholic Church for its putative war against science and reason, it is obviously a case of the best defense is a good offense. For instance, not nine protestants know their own record vis a vis science <I>Calvin's Academy of Geneva, which he founded in 1559, provided: . . . a most thorough education . . . but not the natural sciences, "diabolica scientia," whose study Calvin regarded with fear as "imprudent curiosity and rashness."</I> http://socrates58.blogspot.com/2004/07/early-protestant-hostility-towards.html Sent at: 2008 12 02
