Well, even if you really don't know, history tells us. It's called the *Inquisition

not a history buff, are you??? The inquisition was an absolutely normal human response to what people, at the time, saw as an attact on the truths of Christianity. A group of Christians, Catholics, who, up until then were the only Christians on earth saw a threat to their Christian beliefs and reacted accordingly. To protect the christian religion, they attacked the interlopers....kind of like the crusaders attacking the enemy at that time, the muslims.

.
Delusion like that is worthy of a life estate in a mental hospital!

Catholicism has been from its inception, Satan’s answer to Yeshua’s gospel.

And THAT is the problem with it and Catholicism.

Just where was the Christlike response from those calling themselves Christ's representatives on earth?

To protect the christian religion, they attacked the interlopers....kind of like the crusaders attacking the enemy at that time, the muslims.

Baloney. There's no comparison between the Reformationists and islam and the muslims and anyone with any real knowledge of history would know that.

There's a world of difference between employing islamist methods to subjugate dissenters by torture and murder, confiscation of property and families, and defending yourself from armed attack by muslim invaders.
