If the Catholic Church Was Wrong When It Murdered Giordano Bruno, What Else Might it Be Wrong About?

[LAGC]

Giordano Bruno, burned at the stake on February 17, 1600 by the Roman Inquisition, merely for believing that there were multiple suns and planets out there in the universe, just like our own solar system. Science today has vindicated his theory, we now know that all these other stars out there are suns themselves, and that planets do in fact orbit them. How could the Church have gotten it so wrong? Surely, a "philosopher" of the caliber of Jesus with the knowledge of God would have let it slip that we are but one planet in a sea of planets in the cosmos, that we are not alone. Why allow for such ignorance about the nature of the universe that God supposedly created and had full knowledge of from the beginning? If a body as "infallible" as the Church could be so wrong about such a critical fact of nature, what else might it also be wrong about today?

Granted, the Church has evolved and even "liberalized" to some degree, finding tolerance for certain areas of science after all these long years of opposition to it, but what kind of truth is there in a religion that changes its mind all the time to keep up with the times? One that says it was this way once upon a time, and is now a different way in order to keep up with what scientific discoveries have taught us? Discoveries that it now cannot deny?

What future discoveries are there about to be stumbled upon by science, and what will that mean for the future of the Church? There may be a reason why the Church is in decline, and accusations about boy-buggering by priests would seem to be the least of its concerns, when science itself is the greatest threat to its existence...
