Many people forget (or never knew) that Catholicism / Christianity basically kickstarted modern science. A large misconception is that Christianity and Science can't coexist. When in reality they amplify each other.
One of my favourite stories is of George Lemaître who came up with the Big Bang theory, and predicted the Higgs Boson - while Steven Hawkins bet against it, and was proved wrong.
They didn't do very well by Giordano Bruno though who proposed that the stars were distant suns surrounded by their own planets and got burned at the stake.
