: Yes, there has been growth since the 1500s, but that is not what the article says. It say that science began in the 1500s. That is nonsense, and I intend to correct it. [[User:RSchlafly|RSchlafly]] 02:38, 10 May 2007 (EDT)

No, it does not say that, it does say, science as we know it (scientific method) began back then, it does not deny that discoveries were made before then, also the use of "supposedly" makes it look as if the author doubts his own article, very confusing for readers.
And the growth since the 1500's has been exponential.
I also find a discussion of Galileo's conflict with the church completely inappropriate here, the same goes for attributing science to the catholic church at every turn.
Yes, European scientists were often Christian, just as Arab mathematicians were Muslims and Chinese inventors were Confucianists.
