The Spanish Inquisition was developed to weed out Islamic 5th-columnists, after a particularly valuable port was ceded to the Moors by a traitor.
It worked so well that the Moors were eventually kicked out of Spain. This was known as the “Reconquista”.
Meanwhile in Northern Europe: after losing the battle of Muhlberg the Protestants - unable to win on the battlefield - started spreading ever-more deranged lies about the Inquisition.
At one point the ‘Black Legend’ grew to such an immense and bloated lie that the Protestants were confidently ascribing more deaths to the Inquisition than the number of people who lived in Europe.
So we see that - if Protestants were to be honest and admit it, they share a lot of history with - for example: the Left Wing Media.
We are ONE christian body.
:D
Eye, mote, beam etc.
That's like comparing mortor shells with spit balls. Most of what you think you know about the Spanish Inquisition simply never happened. See The Myth of the Spanish Inquisition
Here's some little factoids. Three times as many people died on 9-11-2001 at the hands of Muslim terrorists than died during the the entire Spanish Inquisition. China executed three times more people just last year.
Mohammed <---------------> Joseph Smith:
Lone "Special Prophet" of God receives visitation from Angel Gabriel, who dictates "third testement" because previous worshippers got it wrong.
Teachings of "new revelation" result in highly restrictive, legalistic new religion featuring polygamy.
What was that about Catholics again???
