As a science enthusiast since childhood, I have read and heard this over-simplified narrative about Galileo countless times. If you look more deeply into the real history, you’ll find that Galileo was a good friend of pope Urban VIII who had a good deal of sympathy for Galileo’s views. The real problem was that Galileo, brilliant as he was as a scientist, was stupid when it came to politics. He constantly feuded with the Jesuits.(at the time, the equivalent of the current scientific establishment) and took every opportunity to make them look bad. This, of course did not make him any friends. The straw that broke the camel’s back was when Galileo published his “Dialogue on the Ebb and Flow of the Sea” as a dialog between three people, one of them being “Simplicio” (a clever but veiled insult) who held the Aristotelian viewpoint. Galileo stupidly put one of the ideas that pope Urban had earlier expressed in the mouth of Simplicio. The Jesuits, when they read this, were only too happy to point it out to the pope. In Galileo’s day, taking a shot at the pope, whether on purpose or by accident, was just about the stupidest political move that anyone could make. And he suffered the consequences. So the “church against science” narrative is largely nonsense and is in the domain of those with an axe to grind against Christianity.

[@hugocopeland6770]

[@timducote5713]

Well said. The Church was actually very tolerant of Galileo's ideas. In his arrogance, he taught his theories as fact when confirmation had not yet been made. Apparently, universities has more academic integrity then than they do today. Galileo's biggest problem was alienating those who were his biggest supporters. In modern lingo, we would say he was a jerk. All of this "religion vs science" is nothing but modernist nonsense.

The Catholic Church funded Galileo's work. This church took his discoveries to the world, even impressing the emperor of China with Western science and technology. But Galieo couldn't prove the earth was moving, he even thought the tides might be evidence. And the stars didn't move. The real issue was between Galileo and the Pope, mostly over a book Galileo wrote which mocked the Pope as a simpleton. Galileo proved to be the simpleton.

@@JJs_playground Unlikely, because they hardly if ever actually suppressed science throughout history. The Catholic Church was fine with the Heliocentric Theory at first. Once the majority of scientists found it absurd, you couldn't teach it as if it was an actual correct thing. It could only be left as a *neutral* model after 1616, and a little bit after Newton did they start actually changing their views on it. The church primarily followed the consensus of scientists in most matters for science.

[@JJs_playground]

@@DragonKing101 I was referring to the 3 Abrahamic religions suppressing science. For example, i know during The golden age of Islam there was an explosion of discovery such as: algebra, algorithms, astrology ( 67% of the Stars have Arabic names), aqueduct systems, medicine. And then one man, named Hamid al-Ghazali (an influential philosopher, theologian and mystic of Sunni Islam), decided science is the work of the devil which basically halted all scientific discovery during the Muslim rule.

[@DragonKing101]

@@JJs_playground I know fairly little about Muslim history. But from the little I do know, I'm pretty sure your, "decided science is the work of the devil " is highly exaggerated From one of his works: " Sciences whose knowledge is deemed fard kifayah comprise [all] sciences which are indispensable for the welfare of this world such as: medicine which is necessary for the life of the body, arithmetic for daily transactions and the divisions of legacies and inheritances, as well as others besides. These are the sciences which, because of their absence, the community would be reduced to narrow straits" - Book of Knowledge- SECTION II That doesn't sound like something a dude who thought science is the work of the devil would say. From what I understand, his problem was Metaphysical ideas that's contrary, rather than actual science. However, just how far that would extend to, I don't really have a clue. I also found this which might elaborate a bit more: "Ghazali makes it plain that his purpose is to refute the Islamic philosophers' metaphysical theories and not their natural science. [...] Indeed, the misguided zealot who attacks science in the mistaken belief that he is defending religion, inflicts damage, not on science, but on religion. He inflicts this damage, Ghazali argues, precisely because science is demonstrable and certain. If it does, in fact, contradict religion, then it is the latter that becomes suspect and not science.

Galileo didnt go against religion, those orthodox creatures of that era went against humanity!!

[@NEY-uu3lx]

"rejected Galileo because he went against religion and stated the Earth was not the center of the universe." First of all that was not a dogma or an infallible statement, he while not wrong, could not prove it, he was friends with the pope. As one man said above "He constantly feuded with the Jesuits.(at the time, the equivalent of the current scientific establishment) and took every opportunity to make them look bad. This, of course did not make him any friends. The straw that broke the camel’s back was when Galileo published his “Dialogue on the Ebb and Flow of the Sea” as a dialog between three people, one of them being “Simplicio” (a clever but veiled insult) who held the Aristotelian viewpoint. Galileo stupidly put one of the ideas that pope Urban had earlier expressed in the mouth of Simplicio. The Jesuits, when they read this, were only too happy to point it out to the pope." Also read this "which appeared to attack Pope Urban VIII and thus alienated both the Pope and the Jesuits, who had both supported Galileo up until this point." "In 1741, Pope Benedict XIV authorised the publication of an edition of Galileo's complete scientific works" " All traces of official opposition to heliocentrism by the church disappeared in 1835 when these works were finally dropped from the Index.[220][221] Interest in the Galileo affair was revived in the early 19th century, when Protestant polemicists used it (and other events such as the Spanish Inquisition and the myth of the flat Earth) to attack Roman Catholicism." In short, He was not against religion, while not perfect as he had children outside of marriage, he was noted to be pious and catholic. His trial of him being suspected of heresy did not end in him being trialed for heresy. He is buried in a catholic basilica. In short, no he was not againts Religion, he was just slandering the patrons of science, who so happened to be clergy.

[@nDreaw12]

Great Video!

[@MegaFortinbras]

Galileo did NOT prove heliocentrism. He supported it. He told a long-time friend, Pope Urban VIII, that he was writing a piece on heliocentrism. In his Dialogue on the Two World Systems, he placed some of Urban's words in the mouth of a character named "Simplisimus" -- "simpleton" is a good translation. Urban did not appreciate being called an idiot in print, and had Galileo brought up before the Inquisition. The official charge was heresy, the actual offense was lèse majesté. Henry VIII had people executed for insulting him. Louis XIII of France would have locked him up and thrown the key away. He also did not drop anything off the Leaning Tower. He rolled balls of different weights down an inclined plane. Get your facts straight.

[@ranisrikumar5735]

Instead of honouring him for the great discovery, how sad , he suffered even in his old age..,😒

[@Ryan-ii8xo]

Great video. I do have some criticisms though. First, the Pisa experiment was a thought experiment not an empirical one. Second, Pope Urban VIII had been a patron to Galileo and had given him permission to publish on the Copernican theory as long as he treated it as a hypothesis, but after the publication in 1632, the patronage broke due to Galileo placing Urban's own arguments, which sided with the scientific consensus view at the time, in the mouth of a simpleton character named "Simplicio" in the book and this caused great offense to the Pope VIII. Also, Observations that favored the heliocentric model over the geocentric model were lacking and not obvious at the time of Galileo's trial in the early 1600s. Direct evidence supporting heliocentrism had to wait for the emergence of Newtonian mechanics in the late 17th century, the observation of the stellar aberration of light by James Bradley in the 18th century, the analysis of orbital motions of binary stars by William Herschel in the 19th century, and the accurate measurement of the stellar parallax in the 19th century. According to physicist Christopher Graney, Galileo's own observations did not actually support the Copernican heliocentric view, but were more consistent with Tycho Brahe's hybrid model where the Earth did not move, and everything else circled around it and the Sun. Source: Wikipedia-> Galileo affair

[@StephensCrazyHour]

Yep. The issue was that he was putting forward a scientific hypothesis that had inadequate evidence. He was notoriously narcissistic and wanted to be known as being greater than Aristotle. A smart man, yes, but completely conceited and it was his direct mocking of the pope that actually got him in trouble.

[@Ryan-ii8xo]

@@StephensCrazyHour That is true. Although, if you ask me I wouldn't change that event as Galileo did set the foundation of modern astronomy. I would instead focus more on the new atheists spewing off these polemics and change the way the public views the relationship between science and religion.

[@outofoblivionproductions4015]

Pope Urban VIII waged war badly in the 30 years war. He was not well liked and was probably very insecure. The Church handled the affair terribly, but it was Cardinals of the Inquisition, who imprisoned and threatened the 70yr old Galileo with torture- which frankly was pathetic. There were even warnings that if the heliocentric model proved correct in the future, the Church's reputation would suffer. As in everything it seems, Galileo was right, and the Church has been perceived as bigoted ever since.

[@Ryan-ii8xo]

@@outofoblivionproductions4015 Urban's intolerance is a red herring. Also, Cardinal Bellarmine openly stated that if Galileo was right the church would accept heliocentrism. Galileo was never tortured. However, the pope decreed that the interrogation should stop short with the mere threat of torture. This was a routine kind of limitation for people of advanced age and ill health like Galileo, and it should not be attributed to the influence of the scientist's supporters. The only reason this conflict thesis has prevailed is because the enlightenment polemicists and sagan didn't bother to cross check their stories.

[@outofoblivionproductions4015]

@@Ryan-ii8xo Ground-breakers and saints in the Church have often been persecuted. Galileo was a great thinker, and suffered at the hands of lesser minds. It is not the right attitude to dismiss how the Church persecuted him. Humans err, and the Church stuffed up on this occasion, and has suffered the bad reputation, for it. But humans stuff up all the time. It's not unusual, but normal actually.

If it is the case that Galileo provided evidence to support the hypothesis then if its shows to be in favor of then it, then it moves up to becoming a theory...theories are supported by evidence, observation, natural law and facts, have explanatory and predicative power. but a word that by and far bothers me more is heresy...

Monotheism was still relatively new at the time. But still the Christians would've known all that if they didn't go around killing clergy members of civilizations that came before them and burning down libraries that held over a thousands years of human history, achievements and the knowledge they had about the universe, the planet, lost civilizations and ancient methods... They didn't want to learn or save people from their sins they were just a bunch of selfish, thieving dogs

If you love Galileo so much you would love Ibn Shatir even more, he's one of the influences on Galileo, but I'm sure you wouldn't care. Your channel is heavily western-oriented that disregards some of the greatest minds in science outside the western world. The inventor of the scientific method is Ibn Al-Haytham, an Arab scientist in the midst of the Islamic Golden Age. His innovation in the scientific method would change history forever. He influenced many scientists in the Renaissance and before, most notably legendary figure Roger Bacon.

Galileo was actually condemned to death by the church, he was to be--beheaded. The ONLY reason he was condemned to "life" was he had ONE choice-- he was to RECANT --PUBLICLY and he did in 2 different public gatherings in Florence! He did not want to recant and it WAS the INFLUENCE of other friends were were scientist from University of Pisa AND University of Bologna who begged to recant. They convinced him; he could KEEP and give some of his circle of scientific friends his manuscripts and logs -- for safe keeping; this way he would be able to KEEP his PROOF and this information would STILL SPREAD! During his "house arrest" scientists visitors posed as relatives, they continued to have many talks and learned how Galileo's Logs were to be used as proof---so THEY kept spreading the knowledge-- this made it worth saving his OWN life.

To do good science we need ethical society which religion shaped(Christianity in particular) late but worthy. We learn from our mistakes and yes his death was a sacrifice to expose hypocrisy of church. 4:28 if not just imagine how they say: 1. Religion will fly you to buliding. 2. Science will fly you to moon. And what i say, "Science will fly you to Japan to drop some fat boys". One of greatest atrocity of a human kind ☮️🕊️

You left out in Dialogue Concerning the Two Principal Systems of the World, he created a character, Simplicio, who believes then the Catholic Church's Aristotlelian View of the Universe eg Earth being the center of the solar system, planets and moon being smooth spheres, etc, who sounded like a simpleton compared to the pro-Copernicus guy he's talking to. Pope Urban VIII felt he was that Simplicio guy and thus Galileo Galilei is forced to recant his work and placed under house arrest.
