If you were being threatened with tourture by the church because of your scientific belifes, would you denounce publicly your science, or would you let yourself be killed by tourture to prove your point?

if you publicly denouce them can you still call them your beliefs? If you take the vis a versa of the situation and face death for your religious beliefs and public denouce your religion public most religions believe that you are a sinner and not worthy of the faith.

so would you denounce your beliefs if a gun was to your head forcing you to?

What i was trying to say and did not articulate very well was that if these "scientific beliefs" are truely your moral beliefs then they are the fiber of your being. Remember our morals are what makes us who we are, they are what we act on and refer to in time of question and if we publicly denouce them then we have denouced who we are. If you truely believe in them nothing will make you want to reject them because it is more than just a point it is the bases who you are. It is not about suffering torture to prove a point, it is about suffering to prove your strength of character. That is why the bible says to welcome public trials for they are a proving ground of our beliefs.

unless you have a complete inability to lie, then you shouldnt have a problem pretending to denounce your beliefs

yeah but if you lie you lose all credibility, it's like talking shit in the park and then when it's your turn to hit the kicker you ski around it.

I would "denounce" them. No one can take away your beliefs. What good are they if you are dead? I may not be gay, but if someone threatened to kill me, I would say I am gay to save my life.

people on trial for their religous and scientific beliefs are totally different. scientists know what they say to be true and dont usually care if fools think otherwise. but people who are heavily religous consider it detrimental to their eternal soul to go against their beliefs so they would die for them. im not religous so id probably 'pussy out' and not think much of it

if you were actually smart, why wouldn't you. I'd just go, yeah, Jesus is my homeboy (he's really not), and go on with my scientific research in secret...like Galileo

^no, you actually wouldn't...there comes a point in every human that they can not take anymore pain and will say anything, even if they don't know what their talking about...

RANDOM FACT: The gov't says that you have to last 1.5 days of torture before telling your captors anything, otherwise you are liable for treason

I'd renounce, then return the next day with a machine gun in one hand, a flamethrower in the other and a plastic bag full of airplane glue duct taped to my head and show those jesus freaks what fanaticism really is.

When galileo denounced what he knew was the truth, he may have been lieing so he could live and continued on with his research, but from an ethical and moral standpoint he had failed. He didnt stand up for what he belived in. He let the church say that they were right and he was wrong.
