If the Catholic Church could bring back the Inquisition it would...

I am sorry my friend, but that's just wrong on so many levels.

You don't understand the faith my friend, but hopefully you will in time learn. If not, remember the good the faith has brought to millions.

Blessings to you!

Nice soft answer to a hard criticism. Good technique in a bad cause. The Catholic Church fell in love with secular power and hasn't learned the lesson yet. That it made amends to Joan of Arc and Galileo years after it murdered or imprisoned them is just a reminder of what the church did wrong. I live a few miles from a seminary where dozens of young men were homosexually molested, and the molesters were not turned over to the secular authorities for punishment. Rather they were hidden and moved away from the scene of their crimes. I cannot forget this as I drive by this place several times a week. This isn't the fault of a few people, it is a fault of the institution. The bishops and cardinals knew of this and did nothing. Jesus wept.
