Agree:
1.) The church was wrong and they should have accepted more of his ideas.
2.) All of the pictures seem to agree
3.) I agree with the heliocentric point of view

Devon Alber said...

i agree with the church not accepting the truth. Galileo's ideas caused heresy. the church should have been more open minded. i couldnt find anything i disagreed with either.

1. i agree with the first picture about the church being at fault... they couldn't accept the truth because it was not the popular thing at that time.

2. the guy in the second picture makes me want to puke

3.i agree that Galileo was considered a heretic by the churches because they didn't agree with his ideas.

5. i agree with everything else

Justin Wenger said...

I agree...
with all of these beautiful pictures
that the church was wrong and should of been more excepting
that Capurnicus said that the sun was the center of the universe

I disagree...
with the one that says earth is the center...which is ours...
and galielo definitely wasn't talking about the titanic

Jake said...

Agreeable:
1. The church is to blame.
2. Galelieo's ideas caused heresy.
3. The church should have been more open-minded.

Disagreeable:
1. Copernicus thought the Earth was the center of the universe.
2. Devon Alber's last name is spelled Alber, not Albert, stressing the fact that there is in fact no "t" at the end of his name...he should be ashamed.
3. The Titanic, as seen in our diagram, was obviously not around during Galileo's time.

Agree
1. I agree with the church was wrong
Disagree
1. I disagree with the second whiteboard cuz capricornius is a heliocentric instead of a geocentric

everything says the same thing...

Lovely_Wolf said...

I can not disagree with an of them because they all have the same idea, and I do think that is was the church's fault because they could have tried to do some of the exp.s to see if Galileo was a lunatic.

I agree with all the people who though the church was at fault for not excepting Galileo's ideas.

In the second white board i disagree with the 3rd box, the C guy believed in a heliocentric universe not a geocentric one.

I agree with all of the drawings in the 2nd boxes .

I agree all of the people's (but the one mentioned) roles of C.

I agree with all the boards that the church was wrong.
And they should have been more open minded. Although, he could have been less arrogant about it.
All the pictures look the same.
And I agree that Galileo was considered a heretic to the church.
