(Ron) the sins of the Catholic Church for Ron

HELEN:
The Inquisition went on for four hundred years. A pope caused it to 
come into being. No pope spoke against it. It claimed to act in the 
name of the Church. No Spanish or any other bishop was punished 
for it's excesses. How can the church not be blamed for this? The 
Witchcraft trails were church inspired, church run and church 
supported.  Has the church yet deny that there is such a crime as 
witchcraft? Has the church yet denied that witches should be killed? 
Damn, is a lobotomy a requirement for Catholics prior to reading 
church history?

  The pope did speak out against the abuses of the Spanish Inquisition. 
Sorry to disabuse you of your prejudices. Witchcraft was against the law 
in those countries.
