Torture in the Inquisition

[mikemac]

Here is something I found quite useful;



It was made by the BBC (which isn't catholic, so it can't be accused of bias) - It's divided into 5 parts.

Torture if I remember correctly was used by everyone, it was just a device of the day and age (like questioning or interrogation is today) -- one cannot judge something in the past against the moral values of today...though watch it, it destroys the Inquisition myth.

I watched this on A&E.  It's surprisingly a fair account of the Inquisition.  The Inquisition myth mostly comes from Protestant propaganda.

I see nobody has posted this SSPX page on the Defense of the Inquisition yet.

Then there's this pair of videos with the Franciscan Friar Fra Joseph Mary.
