Rehabilitation.

I was a little surprised by what Sharratt had to say. There were a few things I didn't know, mainly concerned with Pope John Paul. It seems that Sharratt really likes Pope John Paul and most of what he did. However, the only part he didn't like was how "Pope John Paul's address eludes the crucial distinction between hypotheses as mere calculating devices and hypotheses as conjectures that could eventually be shown to be true." Other than that the, I would have to agree with Sharratt in saying that Pope John Paul was very good. Also, Sharratt seems to go so far as to say that he really is one of the few to realize what Galileo has done for the Church, and more people need to see that. Even though he wasn't a theologian, his contribution was great. I also like how Sharratt shared some information about the Galileo situation I didn't know about, like how the Inquistion didn't even look at his scientific case. That just amazed me.
