Video description:
What if the story about the Christian Church being in conflict with scientific progress is a completely made-up story? What if that story was invented recently?? What if figures like Da Vince, Newton, Galileo and others were actually deeply religious, and would have been befuddled at the idea that faith was in tension with science? Who are the pivotal figures that have constructed this false narrative? What were there motives, and how did they do it? This, and so much more, is what the fantastic ‘Flat Earths and Fake Footnotes’ by Derrick Peterson is all about!
