Man, reading this thread makes me feel like I'm on some pro-christian, fringe, conspiracy-theory subreddit. This is what HN has become? How weird.

- goto11 5y agoCatholic thinkers have been building a revisionist conternarrative to the prevalent "age of reason" narrative. The counter narrative is that the Church was actually the ones promoting science, Galileo was just being an asshole, and the inquisition was really a fair and decent institution which only tortured lightly and only burned people when it was absolutely unavoidable. But yeah, I am surprised how prevalent this thinking is here on HN.
