Galileo was eventually demonstrated correct. Were there trials where the church was eventually demonstrated correct?
Yes, not quite a trial but the condemnations at the University of Paris. In every statement falsifiable among them, the church was eventually correct, e.g., the universe isn't infinitely old, vacuum exists, astrology is bunk.
