It had multiple       sections that included the relevant documents. They cited the same       sources cited by the geocentrists. They had the full Papal decree       removing Copernican writings from the banned list and removing       restrictions on publishing Copernican notions concerning telling time or       planetary motions, but as the geocentrists contended restrictions were       still in place, they were not stated in the document. All that was       stated was that authors had to consult the church offices to see if what       they wanted to publish was right with the church. The geocentrists       contended that heliocentrism remained a heresy, and that the beliefs of       the church fathers could not be challenged, but no one could put up any       documents that could support what remained restricted. My guess is that       there is a document with the continued restrictions, otherwise, the       decree would not have mentioned that they existed. I doubt that it       would have been transmitted verbally to the church offices.              You just got the Council of Trent quote that allowed the Inquisition to       condemn the heresy and make heliocentrism into a formal heresy charge.       You ran from it, but the quote just supports both the geocentrists, the       anti geocentrists, and the wiki accounts.              You just need to stop lying and face reality. The church fathers were       all geocentrists, and that is the way that the Inquisition wanted to       interpret scripture.              Ron Okimoto              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
