Description: A collection of what historians and Freethinkers have said about Giordano Bruno.
Image: Closeup of Giordano Bruno statue. From Wikipedia. Giordano Bruno was born in 1548. At age 15, he joined the ministry, but at age 16 he renounced his vows and became a nonbeliever. Since his middle twenties, he had been running around all over Europe avoiding persecution from various religious groups. Finally, in 1592, he was caught. They took him back to Italy and they locked him up in his cell for 8 years. After 8 years of imprisonment, full of vindictive tortures, he was an old man of 51 years of age. The priests then asked him if he would recant. They put a crucifix in his face and asked him to kiss it, but he scorned at it. When they ordered him to execution, he said, 'Perhaps it is with more fear that you deliver my sentence than I receive it.' They then led him to the center of town and tied him to a stake. On February 17, 1600, he was burned to death.
