No More Copernican Theory

I received official warning today from Cardinal Bellarmine that I am not to teach or defend the Copernican Theory whereby the Earth moves around the Sun.

    Sir:

    How do you propose to respond to this warning? What do you think the Cardinalwill recommend if you choose to ignire his warning?

    A concerned student.
