, 13:45, November 2, 2008→Those Who Forget History are Doomed to Repeat It...: A table to clarify it.

::: To try and make that clearer for those not following, here's it laid out in a table:
:::{| class="wikitable"
! || Copernicus, Galileo, etc.|| Modern creationists || Church establishment of Galileo's time || Modern church establishment || Modern secular science
|-
| '''Position''' || Creationist (you wouldn't think so from anti-creationist arguments) || Creationist (as you'd expect) || Creationist (as you'd expect) || Evolutionist (to a fair extent) (as anti-creationists keep reminding us). || Evolutionist
|-
| '''Basis of particular beliefs''' || Bible and scientific research || Bible and scientific research || Aristotelean "science" || Secular "science"<sup>1</sup> || Philosophical [[Naturalism]]
|-
| colspan="6" |<small>1. The modern church establishment would reject the philosophical naturalism of modern science, but, for the most part not being scientists, put their trust in the "science" of those scientists.</small>
|}
::: From this it can be seen that modern creationists, not modern secular scientists, are the parallel to Galileo and co., whilst in both cases the church establishment opposed on the basis of extra-biblical (I'd say ''un''biblical) views.
