Medieval Inquisition
Regarded by the Catholics as a blemish on the church’s permanent record, the Inquisition’s original purpose was supposed to be a peaceful, non-violent conversion. However, most are well aware that this was not the case. The medieval inquisition (one of several instituted by the Catholic Church) began a period of terror throughout Europe, stemming from the growth of the church’s political effectiveness and corruption. |
