Copernicus and the trial of Galileo


The scientific revolution is the time where people created theory based on the ancient Greek or Romans and then they tried to prove the truth. Sometimes they found that they were right and sometimes they were wrong. For example these are two theory about the sun one is an ancient thought and the next is a theory that was proven after testing and searching for the truth. They are: the geocentric theory and the heliocentric theory.

THE GEOCENTRIC THEORY: The geocentric theory is the theory that say, the earth is the center of the solar system and the Universe. It also say that the sun revolves around the sun. It was first found by the ancient Greeks and Romans, and the catholic church believed it strongly.

THE HELIOCENTRIC THEORY: The heliocentric theory is the theory that proves the truth and what the science has proven. This theory has replaced the geocentric theory. People wanted to know the truth and wanted to sea beyond the stars and found out that the sun is the center of the universe, Earth and all the planets revolves around the sun.
The heliocentric theory proved all the tradition of the hole catholic church wrong. It was a great shame for the church and their religion. The catholic church kept this theory from fully accepted to the world. Copernicus is the first person to discover the heliocentric theory. But son there was a lot of new discovery about this theory and all new theory of physics. Galileo was very famous among them. he proved that the gravity accelerated all the objects toward the earth at the same rate, and further explored the laws of motions. The Catholic church didn't like some of Galileo's theory that went over Cristian theory. so Galileo was forced to agree with the church. then later on when the church found prove and a lot of other physicians argued and finally the church was forced to take what was the truth.

Scientific Revolution: Scientific Method


THE SCIENTIFIC REVOLUTION: The scientific revolution is the discovering of different things over time to time. In the beginnings people didn't know the truth of different and they would believe any theory that anybody would say. But over time people did not wanted to take what everyone would say. They wanted prove. Overtime people tried testing the theories that was known and they even tried to prove the Bible wrong. For example the bible said that the sun revolved around the earth but science proved that the earth revolved around the sun.

THE SCIENTIFIC METHOD: The scientific method mainly is to prove a theory or legend either right or wrong. Over time people wanted to know the truth and for that they tested what they were looking for. They tested their hypothesis over and over again and finally they came to a solution that proved the truth. The process of scientific method is described below:
First there is a theory or method or an observation. Then by that observation or theory, a hypothesis is created. To prove that hypothesis, we maintain a group of process. After that in the scientific method we collect data and observe what ever that is true and white the solution either right or wrong.

Evolution vs Creation


EVOLUTION: Evolution is the process where world changes to something new. For example, from the time the earth was created to this time that we live in now. A lot has changed is this time and all of that are part of evolution. In the earth simple creature or item evolved into complex creature and thats how today we live in a new complex world. Hume's today has changed time by time. Darwin's theory of evolution describes evolution a lot easier. He explains that evolution is occurred by natural selection. Simple creatures evolved to complex creature by random genetic mutation and pass that on to the next generation.

CREATION: There is no actual proofs that can show the theory of creation. All the things that are told about creation are mostly people's thoughts and beliefs. Today the world we have and everything we know are creation but where or how was these things created nobody knows. People beliefs is religion such as Christianity, Islam, etc and they beliefs that the God is the creator of everything.
