No? The Pope did and excommunicated Copernicus. I know that because Copernicus was reburied with religious honours last week. Took an awful lot of years, popes and Jesuit scientists to work out that the earth goes round the sun.

Maybe but it took several centuries before the Pope allowed the blackened ashes of Copernicus' soul to be moved to heaven; that is one good fingerless man who will not be playing the harp. I wonder if Copernicus thinks it was worth it.
