Galileo begged for mercy, asking his judges to consider his advanced age and take pity on him. The event of Galileo being sentenced to "the prison of this Holy Office for a period determinable at our pleasure;” This had constituted a personal disaster for Galileo, and his rash behaviour and talent for making enemies and alienating friends must bear some of the blame for the tragedy. But the real guilt lay with the Church. This proved to be an unnecessary divide between the religion and science due to different opinions that created this type of conflict. The quality of our lives depends on whether or not we have conflicts, but how we respond to
