This thread is about the real inquisition and about the medieval one. So the inquisitions are the worst thing that Catholic Church has ever done. Why? Well they burned and in other ways killed surely about 1000000 people, mostly women. Once someone was accused they very rarely evaded death. When someone was accused there was no fair trial. The accused were tortured in many ways to admit that they were witches. They even had a test to prove if someone was a witch. They would put the victim (the accused) under water with a rock or something tied to them. If they would manage to somehow swim out they were later burned. And if they drowned it was a proof that they were "normal". The Inquisitors caused people to fear them. I'm not so sure they ever killed a king or someone of noble birth but they burned peasants for fun. So think of this next time you use inquisitors and enjoy burning other generals. I admit that it can be fun and easy to play with them but it sure wasn't fun in the Medieval times.
