"For anyone on ANY side"?? No not really!! All three links refer to www . Catholic . Com : the RCC's own website defending it's own faults, outrages, and cruelties.Quote:

What do you disagree with in any of those articles?
The (lacking) historic accuracy and the self-evident glossing over of it's own cruelties.Quote:

The least you could have done is supply different websites from different perspectives.

That you perhaps refuse to accept any such findings because of your religious views does not lower the scientific value and correctness of many of these findings.
I note that the objective evidence supporting religious claims never ever has exceeded 0% !

You think that was not horrible? I could not bear to watch it again.
I mean that the Inquisition was a horrible and atrocious demonstration of religious intolerance by the RCC and of fanatic, complacent, and often self-interested behavior by it's followers, who often had more interest in their own personal gain, instead of in the Christian basic : love and forgiveness for others.Quote:

Tell me this then, could George Bush's actions of today be classified as a sort of Inquisition?
And what does any of the previous few posts have to do with the subject.
Nada.
Any comment, Cred.. . or are you just ranting? And by the way, ranting is just fine on these "Discussion" boards...
...
Neither had several of your rather biased posts with links to one-sided RCC sites and with English black humor anything to do with the core of the subject question, being : "What was wrong with the Inquisition?", and with as focus of that question the atrocities that were carried out over many centuries by the RCC against humanity.Quote:

Well, Cre, you should be fair; the RCC has done much good in the world as well. Isn't the RCC entitled to claim success for defending Poland against rationalist communism? The rationalists did all they could to stamp out the bourgeoisie, but were unable to finish the job.
You mean that a religious organization that is based on the teachings of Jesus Christ (being love and forgiveness) can for many hundreds of years just murder hundreds of thousands of innocent human beings for no reason at all other than self-interest, if supporters of that same religion in Poland hundreds of years later stand up against the communist invader from the east?Quote:
