Re: Exact quote
Galileo was not persecuted for going against church teachings about where the earth was. In fact (if i remember my history appropriatly) he was encouraged by the Pope to look into it.
The reason why Galileo was persecuted because he made a satirical attack against the Pope, a very bad one to my understanding. (plus disobeying papal orders). And then he and his works were censored.

Re: Exact quote

the character you will be looking for is 'simplicio' and he was a caricuture of pope urban.
