Dude, Copernicus called the pope and the other church leaders babblers.
Actually I guess he called them ignorant babblers.
Do you think he got heavenly points for being right even though they were
supposedly the ones with the inside track to God?

"Perhaps there will be babblers who, although completely ignorant of mathematics,
nevertheless take it upon themselves to pass judgement on mathematical questions
and, badly distorting some passages of Scripture to their purpose, will dare find fault
with my undertaking and censure it." Copernicus

Just as they wanted the earth to be the center of the universe, they want people to
make them the center of their lives.
Purely unselfishly of course. $$$$$$
