Reminds me of an item in Elden Ring…
According to the wiki:
Tozzetti later wrote that Capponi’s explanation for taking the two fingers as relics was “because Galileo wrote so many beautiful things with them.”
Galileo literally proved the earth is not the center of the universe, and the church got mad and threw him in the dungeon.
This is legendary.
They weren’t mad about what he said, they were mad he was disrespectful to them.
Yay someone else has seen it. I mention it to others and I’m just looked at oddly. Florence, really in collecting bits of dead ppl and putting them in cases.
Is it aimed in the direction of the Vatican?
Fitting tho.
I need to work out how I can do this, flip off anyone who looks at it.
seems liek Galileo was eventually right in his dismissal of geocentrism, however his actual arguments for it were kind of weak and didn’t really prove his point.
