Answer:

i believe its all on how you look at it but in world history yes

Step-by-step explanation:

Early in 1616, Galileo was ACCUSED of being a heretic, a person who opposed Church teachings. Heresy was a crime for which people were sometimes sentenced to death. Galileo was cleared of charges of heresy, but was told that he should no longer publicly state his belief that Earth moved around the Sun.

I really hope this helped good luck:)
