Think of it this way.
The Governor sees the theologians of Galileo’s day as the power establishment of the time.
He thinks of Galileo as the voice of the non-establishment of that day.
He tells the debate audience that the establishment decried the minority [the non-establishment] of that day, Galileo, with regard to correct science.
His point is that while the scientific establishment of today might argue that humans are causing the majority of climate change, it might well be as wrong now as the establishment was of the 17th Century when it condemned the non-establishment Galileo.
The media of today was too quick to deride the Governor.
It was wrong.
So what else is new?
The Governor was right.
