[Hermann the Cherusker]

Do you believe that God wants the church to burn heretics? Or would this be against His will?

Have you ever read the Old Testament, where Elijah slew the false prophets of Baal?

Does this answer your question?

Its not against the will of God to burn heretics who insist on disturbing the faithful and robbing them of truth.

Rome never changes. It's the auto-de-fe and the instruments of the Inquisition if any dare to disagree whereever Rome holds power. It is somewhat rare for her adherents to be so forthright about her murderous intent toward all who refuse to submit to her pope.

And it's not some dark misty past where all this occurred. Just ask the Croats of the WW II era. They live in fear now because of the resurgence of the murderous Nazi-like Catholics in their region and the cruel and murderous Roman element in Croatia was just given encouragement by the pope declaring their genocidal leader to be a Roman saint.

It's real and it's now.

I don't think the pope will ever get around to apologizing to these, the current victims of his drive into the old Soviet empire.

A timely reminder from Abraham Lincoln:

As long as God gives me a heart to feel, a brain to think, or a hand to execute my will, I will devote it against that power which has attempted to use the machinery of the courts to destroy the rights and character of an American citizen. But there is a thing which is very certain; it is, that if the American people could learn what I know of the fierce hatred of the generality of the priests of Rome against our institutions, our schools, our most sacred rights, and our so dearly bought liberties, they would drive them away, tomorrow, from among us, or would shoot them as traitors. […] The history of the last thousand years tells us that wherever the Church of Rome is not a dagger to pierce the bosom of a free nation, she is a stone to her neck, and a ball to her feet, to paralyze her and prevent her advance in the ways of civilization, science, intelligence, happiness, and liberty.
