Or at least it is impossible not to interpret asv.vatican.va/en/doc/1597.htm as saying that. In the same rooms where Giordano Bruno was questioned, for the same important reasons of the relationship between science and faith, at the dawning of the new astronomy and at the decline of Aristotle’s philosophy, sixteen years later, Cardinal Bellarmino, who then contested Bruno’s heretical theses, summoned Galileo Galilei, who also faced a famous inquisitorial trial, which, luckily for him, ended with a simple abjuration.You'll see the same quote on good ol' Wikipedia en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Giordano_Bruno#Imprisonment.2C_trial_and_execution.2C_1592.E2.80.931600)So, what is the Vatican thinking? Why, of all places and institutions, do they keep to the Warfare Model? Completely out of their minds, just leaning backwards to avoid any debate or posessing secret documents revealing White was correct after all? I suspect the former.
