Abstract

History of religion in Europe in Modern times, and the interaction as well as the conflict between mathematicians together with physicists and the church leaders attract all the attention to the 17th century. However, since the previous years the foundation of the traditional Catholic Church has been shaken by the ideas of reform. In this paper, the author tries to provide a biography of Michael Servetus, the Spanish physician, who has been disapproved of by religious authorities for the crime of apostasy.
