Religious Worldview and Its Influence on the Genesis of European Science in Modern History
Origins of the Copernican Revolution that led to modern science genesis can be explained only by taking into account the joint influence of external and internal factors.

But the very realization of the gap between physics and astronomy appeared to be possible because at least at its first stages modern science was a result of Christian worldview development with its aspiration for elimination of pagan components.
