The inquisition was started during the Spanish fight against the MuslimMoors. The Spanish were persecuted by the Moors and wanted to remove all trace of these invders, so they went overboard -- it happens when excessive cruelty has been perpetrated to a group of people.
The Church during the middle ages purged itself of pagans and witches who still abounded in the year 800 (the Norse were just in the process of being Christianised as were the GErmanics)
