As an example, after the Reconquista pushing back Islamic conquests in Iberia, mobs and Spanish nobles were known for torturing and abusing suspected heretics. The Catholic Church stepped in to say, not unreasonably, that illiterate mobs and nobles shouldn't be the ones deciding who was and was not a Christian. Thus the Inquisition was born, not as an extremist effort of the Catholic church but the opposite, to squash the extremism of those whose affiliation with the church was often weak and questionable itself.
Ironically, judgmental critics like you portray the Inquisition as an example of Christian extremism. But it was part of a religious body that had long gone off the rails in abandoning Christian faith and teaching itself. And as a result its mission to hunt and prosecute heretics became focused on actual Christians as the Reformation got under way.
Ignorant critics fail to understand that anyone who said they were not a Christian was automatically outside the scope of the Inquisition and immediately shown the door (what happened to them after they stepped into the street was another matter, of course.) It was Christians like myself who were hunted and persecuted by the Inquisition. And now have to deal with fools who get their understanding of the Inquisition exactly backwards today.
So massacring Jewish and Muslim men, women and children in the First Crusade is cool with you then. The forced expulsion of Jews and Muslims from Spain is no big deal. The abject failure of Christendom to improve the lives of ordinary people until the Reformation is just peachy. The full throated collaboration of the Roman “Church” and the Orthodox establishment with the Holocaust is fine by you too. And, the Vatican Ratline smuggling Nazis out of Europe after WW2 and into Romanist Latin America is fine as well.
But I’m guessing you probably liked getting molested by the priests.
