Galileo was not on trial for science? WHO KNEW?!?
Actually, it pleases me that such a book might get popular attention as it may save many migraines of dealing with wannabe intellectual atheists who rail against religion (i.e., Christianity) and pull out examples such as Galileo to show how the Church is anti-science, etc.
That said, the first comment I saw read as follows: ".....yes right!...and the Inquisition didn't really happen...it was all a myth...."
I'm probably being overly optimistic.
