The correct answer is William Sherman.
Sherman is often remembered for "Sherman's March to the Sea." Sherman, along with federal forces, used total warfare throughout the state of Georgia.

The Roman Catholic Church
Explanation:
Before Copernicus's Heliocentric Theory, The Catholic Church believed in Greek philosopher Aristotle's Geocentric Theory, where the Earth was the center of the universe. He believed- and I kid you not, that everything moving in the sky was propelled by the world-soul, or soul of the planet, and that their orbits were explained by huge, perfect, chrystalline spheres that contained the celestial bodies and surrounded Earth like a Russian nesting doll. The Catholic Church adopted this theory and sprinkled Jesus on top.
Copernicus (and after him, Galileo) contributed to the disproving of these literally ancient notions.
