Default Re: Hello! Aristotle VS Galileo--Hmm Who was REALLY correct?

Aristotle is wrong. In fact, he claimed a lot of things that easily could be proven wrong (such as how many teeth a horse has, for example) but were not officially proved wrong for many centuries. Since people in the academic world respected him so much, they were afraid to say he was wrong.

Don't get me wrong, I still give him credit for being a great philosopher and scientist of his time, but don't think that something must be correct just because Aristotle said so.
