Why did pope john paul say the church's treatment of galileo was wrong

History
1 answer:
Tanya [424]3 years ago
6 0

Well, the whole reason why Galileo had been treated so badly by the Catholic Church was because his findings contradicted the established Church canon. Galileo was questioning the Church, and, therefore, the Pope. And the Pope was seen as God's representative on Earth. So, for Galileo to question the Pope, it was like he was questioning God, and that's a big no-no with the Catholic Church.

Later, Pope John Paul admitted that the Church's treatment of Galileo had been unfair. That, in doing so, the Church had attempted to censor science itself. And you don't censor science!

Cause that's just not cool :)

What people hated about Russian
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

Anti-Russian sentiment (or Russophobia) is a fear and/or dislike for Russia, Russians and/or Russian culture. A variety of mass culture clichés about Russia and Russians exist. Many of these stereotypes were originally developed in the Western world during the Cold War, and were primarily used as elements of political war against the Soviet Union. Some of these prejudices are still observed in the discussions of the relations with Russia.[5] Negative representation of Russia and Russians in modern popular culture is also often described as functional, as stereotypes about Russia may be used for framing reality, like creating an image of an enemy, or an excuse, or an explanation for compensatory reasons.Hollywood has been sometimes criticised for its excessive and continuous use of Russians as the villains.

On the other hand, Russian nationalists and apologists of Russian politics are sometimes criticised for using allegations of "Russophobia" as a form of propaganda to counter criticism of Russia.

Hope it helps!
