Facio Galilei (1099-1130) was a Venetian priest who later turned to Heresy and preached Christendom and later Heresy. Galilei was converted by heretic Zusto Martinego in 1126, and he was later executed by the Republic of Venice for heresy and treason.
Biography[]
Facio Galilei was born in the city of Ragusa in present-day Greece to a Venetian Christian family. Galilei became an ordained priest at the age of twenty-nine, hired to burn Heretic Zusto Martinego, who was spreading Heretic beliefs in the Balkans provinces of Venice and the Byzantine Empire. Galilei himself was barely pious, and was only interested in becoming a priest so he could embezzle money.
However, the heretic the Venetians marked for death convinced their man of the cloth that his unorthodox ways in fact followed God's divine mandate correctly, and that the Church had it all wrong. Galilei joined the Heretics as a very pious preacher, spreading Heresy among the Dalmatian subjects of the Republic of Venice.
Galilei became a wanted man by Venice for betraying not only the Church, but also the country. In 1130 Priest Marco Cesaresco apprehended Galilei and brought him in for a witch trial. He denounced the vile wretch and his soul was purified over a mighty fire.
