* Regarding the supposed conflict between Copernicus ’ theory and Bible teaching, Galileo wrote: “[Copernicus] did not ignore the Bible, but he knew very well that if his doctrine were proved, then it could not contradict the Scriptures when they were rightly understood. ”
* Galilejs par šķietamo konfliktu starp Kopernika teoriju un Bībeles mācībām izteicās: ” [Koperniks] neignorēja Bībeli. Viņš ļoti labi zināja: ja viņa mācība ir pierādīta, tā nevar būt pretrunā ar pareizi saprastiem Bībeles pantiem. ”
