Galileo to the Grand Duchess Christina

Biblical Authority
-men are grounded
-many did not believe Galileo's message of a heliocentric solar system
-those who cannot deny the truth remain silent
-many in the church use the Bible only to solidify their position
-Bible provides some evidence of a heliocentric universe in Joshua
-a heliocentric universe does not disprove the existance of God; one can believe in both
Aristotelian Authority
-spinal cord proves that nerves originate in the brain and not in the heart
-Aristotle was the world's greatest philosopher, this disproves at least part of his teachings
