Question

The Catholic Church agreed with Copernicus's theory.
True or false

Answer 1

The answer is false.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Catholic Church disapproved of Copernicus's theory because the Holy Scriptures state that the Earth is at the center, not the Sun. As the contents of the Bible were taken literally during this time, the publishing of the heliocentric theory, to the Catholic Church, was considered absurd. The Catholic Church declared that Copernicus and Galileo were sinners because they went against the normal scientific views of this time.

Answer 2

True║The Catholic Church agreed with Copernicus’s theory.

Copernicus had a good relationship with the Catholic Church, and the Church had agreed. “Contrary to popular belief, the Church accepted Copernicus heliocentric theory before a wave of Protestant opposition led the Church to ban Copernican views in the 17th century.” Therefore I believe the answer is true.
