Copernicus and the trial of Galileo
the theory was that the universe can be made more visible. the trial of galileo was that he did not teach parts of the bible. galileo belived in science more, and the catholic belived in theirs. the catholics did not like what they saw so they put him in house arrest. Galileo belived in science more then he did in the catholics belife.

Evolution vs Creation
1)Evolution is made up by darwin when he found out that not all the birds are the same. he noticed that birds have different beaks and different living habit.He then tryed to make up a theory to see if its true. He studied the birds carefully and noticed that they were different. the church refused his theory. Only a few people wanted to belive him but they couldn't let go of their religion. 2)Creation was thought of the christians, they were a part of god and wanted their followers to belive their god. One belifes that the christains thought was that planets revolved around the earth. It was wrong when scientists found out that the plantes acually revoled the sun. They banned the teachings of evoulution of the schools and started to teach scientific creationism. 3)If i had to choose one i would choose the evolution because it is more real. And it sounds more convincing, the fact that we evole from animals. just like monkeys evole greater throughout the decades. Evoulution has alot of evidence to cover and it has the proof of why we are here today.
Scientific Revolution: The Scientific Method
the scientific meathod was a bunch of theorys that try to prove an idea of someone else's theorys. One example of a scienticfic meathod is aristotle thought that heavy objects would fall faster than smaller objects. So one guy Galileo tried to see if he was right. He dropped a bowling ball and a baseball and they both fell at the same time. Galileo proved Aristotle wrong
