small nitpicks on your post Yorick and Timber

Timber: the main issue was not about the earth being flat (which I am not sure if the church denied that) but about the earth as god's creation being the center of the universe. Scholars just couldn't bear the image of the earth moving around the sun making it "less" than the sun. You could argue that the earth IS in fact the center of the universe not physically speaking but spiritally as it may be the only place with intelligent life.

Yorick: I take it that you meant 10^21 and 10^25?
Mental soundness being connected with corporal health is correct but there have been a lot of misconceptions about the DIRECT connection between the two.
The best example is the misinterpretation of Latin "mens sana in corpore sano" which was taken out of context and in the full verse actually reads "may there be a sound mind in every healthy body" rather than "in a healthy body there's always a sound mind".
