You could not deal with the citations when you got them last time.  Your 
only response was ad hominem against the priest, but nothing to state 
that his conclave references were not what he claimed.

You go find that thread.  You must recall your inability to deal with 
reality then.  My eternal September doesn't go back that far.

This seems to be similar to the source, but seems to be rewritten or 
someone else's version.  This one claims that the council of Trent 
classified heliocentrism as a heresy.  It doesn't seem to have the same 
conclave reports cited, but it has the Congregation of the Index in 1616 
as condeming all writings about Copernicanism.  That seems to have been 
held the same year that it was designated as a formal heresy.

It is later followed by a statement that Galileo was being charged with 
the heresy of being contrary to a fixed earth.

QUOTE:
1633 – On June 22, the Holy Office formally condemns Galileo for heresy: 
“We say, pronounce, sentence and declare that you, the said Galileo…have 
rendered yourself in the judgment of this Holy office vehemently 
suspected of heresy, namely, of having believed and held the doctrine 
which is false and contrary to the Sacred and Divine Scriptures, that 
the sun is the center of the world and does not move from east to west 
and that the earth moves and is not the center of the world…after it has 
been declared and defined as contrary to Holy Scripture…From which we 
are content that you be absolved, provided that…you abjure, curse, and 
detest before us the aforesaid errors and heresies and every other error 
and heresy contrary to the Catholic and Apostolic Roman Church.” Pope 
Urban VIII took full responsibility for the condemnation of Galileo by 
enforcing “in forma communi” the Congregation’s prohibitions against 
books holding the Copernican system as truth.
END QUOTE:

Galileo did face the death penalty.

This source does not have the 19th century (I think that it was sometime 
like 1833) conclave report that downgraded heliocentrism to what it is 
today (some type of lesser heretical transgression) but it does have 
further evidence that geocentrism was never given up on by the Catholic 
church with examples into the 20th century.  This source doesn't seem to 
be interested in what kind of heresy heliocentrism was.  It just 
supports that it was the heresy that Galileo was being tried for, and 
that it remains something that should not be denied by good Catholics.
