Martin Luther
  • Luther on Aristotle
  • Aristotle is truly a devil, a horrid
    calumniator, a wicked sycophant, a prince of
    darkness, a beast, a most horrid imposter on
    mankind, one in whom there is scarcely any
    philosophy, a public and professed liar, a goat,
    and his followers are locusts, caterpillars,
    frogs, and lice.

Galileo script

Scholastic methodology and astronomy"There are
seven windows given to animals in the domicile of
the head. From this and many other similarities
in nature, such as the seven metals, etc., which
were tedious to enumerate, we gather that the
number of planets is necessarily seven. Moreover
these alleged satellites of Jupiter are
invisible to the naked eye, and therefore can
exercise no influence on the earth, and therefore
would be useless, and therefore do not exist.
Besides, from the earliest times, men have
adopted the division of the week into seven days,
and have names them after the seven planets. Now,
if we increase the number of the planets, this
whole and beautiful system falls to the ground."

  • "Propositions to be forbidden

    double motion."
