What was the Catholic Church's conflict and compromise on science physics and astronomy?
The Church wasn't in opposition of science physics or astronomy (what they thought was correct anyway). As a matter of fact in order to be educated in things such as science back when the Church condemned Galileo (which I assume you are referring to). However the Church did not accept the reasoning of Galileo when it was first proposed due to several things. Some people thought that it opposed scripture. Also there was a view that circles were perfect and therefore the perfect god would have created His universe in circles. Also being that we were God's creation shouldn't we be at the center of the Universe?Of course the Church doesn't stand by the decision made with Galileo but those are some of the facts that I can remember from my teaching on the matter.
