The issue was about torturing people by the catholic leadership, (Inquisition), annalex....so then are you supporting that in order to get a confession of heresay? Because that is exactly what the church did to many innocent people. You know the Inquisition was brutal to those in and outside the church...and you know fully well who ordered these...the leadership of the church while they held hands with Romes Political Machine. The bribes and payoffs were plentiful for all in power...and this still happens in the catholic church today.
The Holy Inquisition was an ecclesial court that investigated heresy and publicly excommunicated the guilty using the best methods available and thought proper at the time in cooperation with the civil authority. I support American Inquisition, that would utilize modern techniques and cooperate with the civil authority of the United States, in order to, foremostly, publicly excommunicate those Catholics who hold positions of power and teach contrary to the Catholic doctrines, or commit sexual abuse.
The Church, incidentally, condemned the use of torture by the US government, so that might do something good also to the US secular practices.
