Galileo - Did the Church Condemn Him as a Heretic?

This week on A Podcast About Catholic Things, Dan and Eric talk about astronomy in 1600. We're setting the stage for Galileo's conviction. Why was he condemned? Was he really labeled a heretic? Were the authorities right to be skeptical? Was the Church "AGAINST SCIENCE"? Let's face it--the Church steps outside its range of authority with Galileo, and now we have Pope Francis doing the same thing… and he's just as wrong. Years from now, Francis' statements will be just as embarrassing as Pope Urban VIII. In current events, more on the Covid19. Earthquakes rock the US. Trump sends the Navy to Venezuela.
