What were the positive and negative effects of the Polish astronomer Copernicus?

Answer 1

i could go on and on about this but i'll keep it short.

positive: he got people to think in a more correct manner about the solar system.

negative: the revolution named after him involved not only a movement from geocentrism to heliocentrism, but also a corresponding, parallel movement from homocentrism to scientism and even nihilism. if we are not in astronomical center stage, then we are not in ideological center stage, was the effect. we are not God's focus nor does anything move toward any purpose. this was the ideological result of heliocentrism. human importance and meaning in life then became replaced by mathematical explanations and empirical method. not that mathematical explanations and empirical method are negative affairs, but that a movement from a collective belief in Ultimate Goal and Final Cause and Central Importance, to "numbers explain it all," is a movement toward personal and social emptiness.

and all this because copernicus was a sun worshiper. his famous claim was not due to his science or his astronomy. it was due to his underground religion, which was and still is a component of the occultism practiced by world elitists, whose same-thinking ancestors played a key role in developing and propagating disinformation involving the notion of human importance to God, where "God" is a theologically deceptive idea. that is, those whose bloodlines have created the main thrust of northern hemisphere rooted theology, and who continue to stand at the core of its push on the public, themsleves were and are sun and saturn worshipping luciferians, and are psychopathic, parasitic predators on the human race.

so if carried through to the detail, this all makes for a potentially complicated answer to a seemingly simple question here. it brings in the topic of perpetrators of mass human deception, although copernicus did get us to think more accurately about the earth/sol physical relationship. a natural follow up question would be, WHY did copernicus publicly announce his astronomically significant claim, and WHY did the church severely frown upon him for it? "Why," that is, in the sense of "Behind the Scenes." in other words, did both of these facts work together as components of a sinister, controlled, engineered plot to drive humanity into states of unrest and submission, via an elaborate disinformation scheme, where such schemes always involve bits of truth intimately connected with lies?

to sum, a comprehensive answer to the initial question here might depend on greater certainty over the role copernicus actually played.
