Guns, whilst it's not heretical, agitating for, say, female priests and bishops (and even going so far as a female pope) would, I think, attract the ire of the male-dominated Catholic hierachy. Such agitators would probably not be killed, but I think incarcerated in "re-education" facilities.

Crimson, I assume you mean that geocentrism would fall out of favour? But I must agree with your point: at my Catholic primary school we were taught evolution. Perhaps as scientists discovered things (heliocentrism, evolution etc.) they would have submitted the theories to the Church for "verification" (ie does the theory actually go against the fundamental beliefs of the Church?). As otl popes have said that evolution does not actually contradict the faith, I guess that, given time, the TTL Church could have done the same.
