Galileo Sun-Centered System

http://www.myspace.com/acorvettes
When Galileo published his book debating the Copernican and Ptolemaic systems, the Church found him guilty of heresy and sentenced him to house arrest for the rest of his life. Today, Galileo is recognized for his revolutionary work in both astronomy and physics, and has been referred to as "the father of modern science." In addition to his findings in support of the Copernican system, his theories regarding falling objects and objects in motion laid the groundwork for classical mechanics. He was also a pioneer in the approach we call the scientific method, which utilizes observation and experiment. In 1992, three hundred and fifty years after his death, the Church officially apologized for condemning Galileo and his scientific research.

@polonophobia The Copernican heliocentric system was by most viewed as a mathematical model only. It was used because it had greater predictability power over the motions of the planets then the geocentric system. It was not considered proof, nor having any bearing on reality. What Copernicus himself, as a catholic monk, believed is unknown, though it is unlikely that he had anything to do with the foreword that was put into his book that stated that it was only a mathematical model.

@pitalovesmusic lol, why? didn't you see how galileo wound up? in jail, BECAUSE of the church, soften me up? yeah, that's what we need in this world, more wussies lol, there's no hate, you got offended by me saying the people whom wrote the bible were ignorant, that's because they were, they didn't know what the hell they were talking about when they looked up at the sky, Geocentric system was wrong through and through, but the church didn't want to accept that because it contradicted the bible

@TheToxicRadio Ignorant is what YOU are.

[polonophobia]

It is a Copernican Sun-Centered System as Copernicus was the first one to mathematically prove the Earth is revolving around the sun.
