Men in Galileo's time, particularly those in the Church and established scientific circles, resisted his ideas primarily due to the conflict with Aristotelian philosophy and the Church's interpretation of Scripture. Galileo's support for heliocentrism challenged the geocentric model that had been widely accepted for centuries, leading to fears that his findings undermined religious authority. Additionally, the lack of empirical evidence and the prevailing scientific norms made it difficult for many to accept his revolutionary ideas. Resistance was further fueled by Galileo's outspoken nature and his confrontational relationship with Church authorities.
