None of this changes the fact that Galileo had the Christian worldview.

Most everyone paid lip service to Christianity while the theists were in charge. Otherwise, your book was put on the Index, you were put on trial and quite possibly tortured and murdered.

These scientists' religious views are no secret. Robert Oppenheimer (a non-Christian) said the same thing I am saying. The discoveries were made possible ONLY because of their Christian worldview: The universe is ordered and rational and can be understood becuase it was created by a rational God. That is precisely why almost all of the major breakthrough scientific discoveries were made in Reformation Europe or the United States. You need to study history without your secular bias. The truth is there for all to see.
