Jason,
Great article. Thanks for linking it.
Just to connect it with George's post, this is why it is so important to understand the importance of "myth" in our cultural identity. Galileo was fighting against the accepted cultural mythology of the story of the cosmos, and his battle has become a cultural myth in it's own right.

Again, thanks.
