which statement best explains the roman catholic church's primary reaction to the ideas developed by Galileo and other scientist of scientific revolution
The Roman Catholic Church's primary reaction to the ideas developed by Galileo and other scientists of the Scientific Revolution was one of resistance and opposition. The Church viewed many of the new scientific ideas as challenging its authority and contradicting the teachings of the Bible. Galileo, in particular, faced significant opposition from the Church for his support of the heliocentric model of the universe, which contradicted the geocentric views supported by the Church at the time. Galileo was ultimately tried by the Inquisition and forced to recant his beliefs.
