Not a single word of which (that he said) as any historical
basis. Bruno wasn't burned at the stake for saying the earth
reovlved around the sun, he was burned at the stake because he
was a violent asshole who went to considerable trouble to get
burned at the stake.


He was burned for heresy. For thought crime. Not for violence.

Certainly not for science, which he never did. Glad you agree that
Neil theAss Tyson's a lying douchebag.

(And yes, he was a _violent_ extremist.)
