The Galileo affair testifies to the fact that you get into trouble, as the Church did, when you try to look at the Bible as a science manual when it is not. The Church should have heeded Cardinal Beronius who said in 1615 that the Bible teaches us how to go to Heaven, and not how the heavens go.

God & Religion is a Evil creation of man-kind.

The Mayans even knew that our solar system spiralled around a galaxy and the figures of the eastern islands all have a distinctive look when you have an open mind. And by the way: Stonehenge is still a mystery in how it has been constructed!

the historical figures' voice-overs are the best i've ever heard in a documentary. This was the best description I've ever seen of Galileo's trial. Thanks for posting.
