Thanks for doing the lookup. I just had no energy for explaining the basic historical facts of the 16th cen. schlastic tradition that lay behind my so-called "attacks".

That was a great article!I really enjoyed it!

thank you and thank you for clearing up the misinterpretation of bobbys post.

now perhaps you could explain how Nadines statement that the church was "wedded to the geocentric model "does not conflict with the view that the church ,at that time, was a supporter of free thought.

"I was just pointing out that not only was the Church wedded to a geocentric model of the universe, but there was also a scholastic establishment wedded to a Ptolomaic view of astronomy." Message 24168548
