If you hecking love science you might've fallen for the meme of Giordano Bruno's "persecution" by the Church. This was a myth passed around in anti-Catholic Protestant circles for a while, but now has become a classic internet atheist forced-meme, albeit not quite as egregious as "Jesus Mythicism" and others. Here it is immortalized in Carl Sagan, then Neil deGrasse Tyson's Cosmos series. I do basically a "react" video to it.

Commentary on the myth of the Church's "scientific" persecution of Giordano Bruno. In popular myth, and in this documentary by Neil deGrasse Tyson, Bruno is depicted as a rational scientist who was unreasonably persecuted and executed by religious authorities for his belief in multiple worlds and an infinite universe. In reality, nearly every detail presented in the documentary is deceptive and Bruno was simply tried and executed for typical heresy and rabble-rousing. His mystical views, which are similar to some modern cosmologies are coincidental and do not flow from experiment or "science" in any way, other than simply coming from earlier Hermetic philosophy.

Bruno was an interesting character, nonetheless. You can read Frances Yates' "Giordano Bruno and the Hermetic Tradition" for some info about his life, thought and times.

Correction: I realized for some reason in the video I called Francis Bacon's book the "Novus Organum" twice. This was obviously and error, in fact, it's not even good Latin. It's "Novum Organum."
