I am reading about PRE-COLUMBIAN MAYAN SOCIETIES AND THE CONQUEST and how the Spanish monks tried to convert those people to Christianity by telling them that human sacrifices were the work of the devil; fair enough, those ceremonies were quite sinister and grim but how come the monks did not see a parallel between those sacrifices and the work of Inquisition in Europe where hundreds of thousands, maybe milion people were burned alive?

lol Senza nice reflection on the stupidity of the Catholic Church
Dear Senza,Yes, I too myself, find it hard to believe that 'The church' ie..during the spanish inquisition & OTHER NASTY PERIODS IN RELIGIOUS HISTORY could do SUCH EVIL THINGS, ALL IN THE NAME OF GOD.(THEIR GOD)..and then try to 'CONVERT 'peoples/SAVAGES(in their opinion) all over the world to CHRISTIANITY.....it's just so hard to get ones head around...IT'S ALL MAD !
However I am a R/C.Those times were 'CHAOTIC' TO SAY THE LEAST.iT'S ALL SO VERY VERY..OH WHAT'S THE WORD....do you know what I DON'T KNOW..!!!
ps..Did you ever see that film..oh..years ago 'THE MISSION'?
