Another Pope story
Renowned astronomer Kepler was asked by the Pope to produce a clock of the movement of the planets
Kepler did this, and the Pope was delighted
But Kepler told him that whilst he had tried every conceivable variation, he could only get the thing to work if he worked it so the planets moved around the sun
The Pope said, absolutely no problem
So Keplers clock was ticking merrily away in the Popes study, even as Galileo was later condemned for heresy for saying the same thing
Merry Christmas
