Question: Of the three possible positions held in the debate, which did Kepler and Copernicus hold? Group of answer choices The Copernicans were not warranted in believing that their theory was true because the methods of astronomy and mathematics cannot prove what is true in the heavens. Their theory was only a method of calculating the appearances of the planets and the sun, a method that might be useful but one that the Copernicans could not claim to be true. The Copernicans were not warranted in claiming that their theory was true because they had not demonstrated its truth. It is possible for the methods of astronomy and mathematics to prove the true motion of the heavens, but the Copernicans did not successfully demonstrate their theory to be true. The Copernicans were warranted in claiming that their theory was true because they had provided sufficient evidence to support their claim.
