Hi,
In 1835 Galileo's
Dialogue Concerning the Two Chief World Systems was removed from the Vatican's Index of banned books, and in 1979 Pope John Paul admitted that the Catholic Church had erred.
Now it is proposed that a statue of the great man be erected within the Vatican walls. I've visited his tomb in Florence, very impressed.
