Galileo was teaching the Copernican heliocentric (sun centered) hypothesis of the universe as fact and openly declared he had no proof to offer. Many in the Vatican, including the pope himself, supported Galileo's claims. However, the pope advised him to stop teaching it as fact when it was only a theory or hypothesis. Galileo refused and began publishing some very anticlerical and sarcastic remarks about the pope and the Roman Curia. He quickly lost any support he had in the Vatican and was sentenced to house arrest by the Inquisition. Pride was his downfall. Copernicus had long supported the heliocentric hypothesis but had no problems with the Church as he did not teach it as a fact.
Galileo's work supporting the heliocentric model challenged the geocentric views held by the Catholic Church. The Church saw his ideas as heretical and forced him to recant his views under threat of excommunication. The conflict was resolved centuries later in 1992 when the Catholic Church formally acknowledged that Galileo was right and that the Church's judgment against him was a mistake.

The birth and growth of science led to the conflict between scientists and the church.
In 1616, Galileo Galilei angered the Catholic Church by advocating for the heliocentric model of the solar system, which posited that the Earth revolves around the Sun, contradicting the Church's official geocentric view. He supported his argument with observations made through a telescope, which challenged the literal interpretation of certain biblical passages. The Church deemed this perspective heretical, leading to Galileo being warned to abandon his support for heliocentrism. This conflict marked the beginning of a significant confrontation between science and religious authority.
Galileo had a falling out with the church over his scientific papers regarding the Earth revolving around the sun. This went against the church belief's at the time and Galileo was forced to go to Rome for a trail and denounce his scientific findings.
His findings frightened both the catholic and Protestant leaders because they went against the church teachings and authority. The conflict was solved when Galileo stood before court and knelt before the cardinals and read aloud a signed confession in which he agreed that the ideas of Copernicus that he said were real, we're false.
There was a major conflict with the catholic church. They reportedly did not think the time was right to allow people to believe that the world was not the center of the universe, as was implied by the bible.
Galileo Galilei got in trouble with the Church when he propose his sun-centered universe as opposed to earth centered.
Galileo's work came into conflict with the church because he advocated a heliocentric model of out solar system. This conflicted with what it says in The Bible.
Galileo Galilei was not charged with Hershey; rather, he was famously tried by the Roman Catholic Church for heresy in 1633. His support of the heliocentric model, which posited that the Earth orbits the Sun, contradicted the Church's geocentric view. This conflict between science and religious doctrine led to his trial and subsequent house arrest, where he continued his scientific work.
In galileo`s time the catholic church was at authority
Galileo raised ecclesiastic hackles because he challenged the church-sanctioned, astronomical doctrine of his day: that the the earth stood at the center of both the solar system and the known universe.
