The Catholic church was right to oppose him on the evidence he presented. Nevertheless, they had a Docetic view of Scripture: as if God had dictated in a way that overwrote the human authors. As Sproul says, to this very day we still say “sunrise” and “sunset”, despite our high scientific knowledge. Science is only possible if we presume a rational God maintaining a rational universe.
