Just A Thought ~ TO SAVE HIS LIFE
Galileo, under threat of death, was
forced to confess he’d erred in saying that the Earth
turns around the Sun, instead of the Sun turning around
the Earth, as the Church maintained. Sometimes, we
must do things we don't like or agree with, but at
such times we shouldn’t forget what we hold to be
true. After signing his confession, Galileo is rumored
to have muttered, as he turned away to house-arrest
for the rest of his life: "It still turns!"
