   >>>>>>> 1615-1616 (the anti-geocentric Catholic source, the conservative   
   >>>>>>> Catholic source, and the geocentric wiki).  The conservative Catholic   
   >>>>>>> source claimed that it was also a formal heresy when Galileo faced the   
   >>>>>>> charges the second time with papal involvement.  The other two sources   
   >>>>>>> noted that it was only claimed to have been a heresy in the sentencing,   
   >>>>>>> and the word formal had been omitted.  The anti-geocentric site claimed   
   >>>>>>> that the 1616 inquisition judgement had not been accepted by the later   
   >>>>>>> court, but then they also tried to claim that the sentencing had been   
   >>>>>>> poorly written, and that Galileo had actually been found guilty of   
   >>>>>>> breaking his oath to the 1616 inquisition.  This would mean that the   
   >>>>>>> later court had accepted the 1616 inquisition judgement.   
   >>>>>>>   
   >>>>>>> The Catholic church still has geocentric creationists like Pagano   
   >>>>>>> because they claim that heliocentrism is still a heresy, and that it   
   has   
   >>>>>>> never been negated as a heresy.  The anti-geocentric site put up the   
   >>>>>>> 1822 Papal decree that removed heliocentrism from all banned lists, and   
   >>>>>>> that it could be used to tell time and calculate celestial movements.   
   >>>>>>> The geocentric catholics claim is that heliocentrism did not stop being   
   >>>>>>> a heresy because there were still restrictions placed on what could be   
   >>>>>>> published about it.  These restrictions were not stated in the decree,   
   >>>>>>> just that you had to consult the proper church officer.  A site that I   
   >>>>>>> put up years ago claimed that this decree just set things back to what   
   >>>>>>> was in place due to the Council of Trent, before heliocentric   
   >>>>>>> publications were banned, and that heliocentrism could still not be   
   used   
   >>>>>>> in relation to the beliefs of the church fathers.  After the Council of   
   >>>>>>> Trent heliocentrism became a heresy because all the church fathers were   
   >>>>>>> geocentrists.  The anti-geocentric Catholic site agrees with what the   
   >>>>>>> Council of trent did, and even admit that heliocentrism was s formal   
   >>>>>>> heresy when Galileo first faced the charge in 1616.   
   >>>>>>>   
   >>>>>>> Your stupidity about geocentrism is likely directly related to your   
   >>>>>>> stupidity and lies about the current topic.  You just can't accept   
   >>>>>>> reality for what it is, even if you have to deny what your own trusted   
   >>>>>>> source told you.
