Who denied the Spanish Inquisition?

There were also anti-Jewish pogroms in the Rhineland in the 800s, in England in the 1100s and smaller ones in Southern France at various times during the age of Catholic Europe.

However, localized outbreaks of hostility and violence over a period of more than a thousand years do not sum up a Church or a culture.

The vast majority of the world's Jews lived in Catholic Europe because they knew that such incidents were aberrations from the norm and that they were much safer in a Catholic environment than they were in an Islamic or pagan one.

Your attempt to paint me with an anti-Semitic brush is duly noted, however.

The tactics you use to hide your shortcomings in logic and history are beneath contempt.
