Think about how protective the church as been historically about its teachings and the cruel way that people who opposed their thinking were treated. Scientists often suffered as did the academics throughout history. Galileo was only recently forgiven for his teachings opening up our understanding of the cosmos.<br /><br />@romantic B&B: I love the German architecture and its tie to history.Mark Hhttp://www.travel-wonders.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4446645565996377876.post-45599456388709569632010-01-29T14:17:17.780-08:002010-01-29T14:17:17.780-08:00@gretchen: Thank you
