Torquemada did what he did for the glory of God,

Absolutely. He ran the cleanest courtroom in all of Christendom. But he had zero tolerance for heresy. Jeff the Queer is whining about 'censorship'; he's distressed that "they must go to such lengths to stifle disagreement." If he thinks that disinviting a lesbo-nun is "such lengths", perhaps we should remind him that in the past, the Church was far less tolerant of his ilk. I think the Church was better off being less tolerant of error.

I am not disagreeing with you!

I think his reasons for whining are not motivated by the glory of God, but by the fulfillment of self.

Torequemada might have been a little shy on the kindly mercy side, but he was honest and true and believed.

We need more who are honest and true and believe.

If you can't justify your behavior by the teaching of the church, then which one needs to change? You and I, I am sure, know the answer here. More of the "liberal activists" need to consider that question carefully. Their souls may depend on it.

So we pray for them, and do what's right, and stand up and be heard, and let God have the glory.
