'''Robert Bellarmine''' ''(Roberto Francesco Romolo Cardinale Bellarmino)'' ([[ | '''Robert Bellarmine''' ''(Roberto Francesco Romolo Cardinale Bellarmino)'' ([[4 October]] [[1542]], Montepulciano, Siena, [[Italy]] – [[17 September]] [[1621]], [[Rome]]) was an Italian Jesuit and a Cardinal of the [[Catholic Church]]. He participated in the Church's proceedings against Giordano Bruno (sentencing him to be burned alive in a public square) and [[Galileo Galilei]] (who escaped the same fate, with eleven years' house imprisonment). | ||
By the time Bellarmine was in his 60s, he bore a resemblance to the [[First Doctor]] so that [[Irving Braxiatel]]'s [[Jamarian]] agents mistook the Cardinal for the Doctor. They abducted him to moderate the [[Armageddon Convention]]. The fact that the Doctor was impersonating the Cardinal to protect himself and secure the protection of the [[Venice]] government further complicated matters. | By the time Bellarmine was in his 60s, he bore a resemblance to the [[First Doctor]] so that [[Irving Braxiatel]]'s [[Jamarian]] agents mistook the Cardinal for the Doctor.
