Personally Glaumring is very interested  in the scientific nature of the Bloodstars, but in a medieval way. He looks at the stars and has no concept of the vast 3 dimensional space if they are vast at all or even 3 dimensional, for all he knows they could be 3 campfires or lanterns, having no real concept of what a star is, he believes that they are a only a few miles away and it would be possible to construct a balloon or stairway to reach the stars. He also has no concept of their size. For Glaumring the sky is merely a fabric with stones rested upon its surface.

I think many people look at the religious/scientific aspect from their own perspective and they argue and fight against it because they themselves in reality see the  truth. Yet very few take into account how a true medieval person would view this religious idea. I know people pounce on the 'heretic' or 'Inquisition' side of SA with vigour, but very few people actually bring much more to the table beyond their desire to use SA as a platform to control people or nations. Come to think of it since being in SA and the prophet sleeping most of  the time, people spend more time arguing and charging people with heresy than they do actually bringing new teachings or ideas to the church. I myself being a victim of that mentality to to a degree.
