Quando Einstein só dizia asneira.

Pascal, Leibniz e Newton foram cristãos e a Igreja jamais perseguiu cientistas só pelo simples facto de o serem. O sujeito ia preso não por ser cientista e sim por dizer-se católico sem o ser.

"From the study of history, one is inclined to regard religion and science as irreconcilable antagonists, and this for a reason that is very easily seen.

(...)

It is, therefore, quite natural that the churches have always fought against science and have persecuted its supporters."

(Albert Einstein, On Cosmic Religion and Other Opinions and Aphorisms)
