Excerpt from Some Noted Catholic Men of Science

Further if one studies the history of this case one will find that Galileo was an exceedingly unpleasant t) pe of person. He was one of those men who arouse everybody's antagonism. Just a few years after advancing the geo centric theory he advanced the opposite theory. Further his proofs were inadequate; indeed it was not until one hundred years after his death that complete proof of his theory came into the possession of scientific men.\nother point raised in this connection is that of the imprimatur too long to deal with now and fully discus sed by me in one of my books. On this I will only say that a layman is not in any way obliged to ask for an imprima~ tur for his books. I do not know what rules apply to the clergy, but only once have I applied for one though I have written several books on Catholic matters.
