George Coyne, former Director of the Vatican Observatory, head of the observatory's research group and Jesuit Priest disagrees. In his paper: The Church's Most Recent Attempt to Dispel the Galileo Myth (which I recommend reading) he gives quite a thorough synopsis of events and reasons surrounding the Galileo affair. It is well written and thoroughly footnoted.

It would appear to be one of things that places one who says they hold to Christian beliefs but puts them in the atheist camp who reject all forms of faith in regard to the faith of Christ. (Christian faith).

To a Christian in whom Christ is being formed in  all the days of their lives, by the living word of God that reforms them, as those who walks or reasons by and exclusive faith according to the eye witness account of someone who was there in the beginning, creating substance out of nothing. And has given us a written account or a codex (book of the law) by which He can and does draw us to follow Him in other area of life also, as a living will. Whether they claim to be Christian or atheist that discards that exclusive  faith according to another kind law which comes from reasoning after empiricism, there exclusive witness as no faith, by which they develop their conclusions  which is to reason by sight, after things seen, through “I heard it through the grape vine” oral traditions of men. In the end of the matter it just shows they are not following after Christ, as the things of God, but are walking after the manner of  the spirit of this world, after natural man.

In the end of mater its either we have been become a new creature through, and according to the law of God’s faith, as He works to give us that faith that comes by hearing Him, or we reason amongst ourselves as those of no faith.

Doubt is not the opposite of a codified faith, unbelief is .
