“Borgia popes and their infamous henchman Torquemada”
The Borgia popes were in Italy. Torquemada was Spanish - and not in Italy. Torquemada became grand inquisitor in 1483. Only ONE of the Borgia popes was pope while Torquemada was head of the Spanish Inquisition - Alexander VI who was pope for 11 years - five of those years being after Torquemada died! And Alexander VI actually appointed other people to the inquisition in Spain in an effort to restrain the excesses that had developed under Torquemada.
“Erasmus said, after reading a Greek Bible, Either this is not the Bible, or we are not Christians.
Erasmus also said: “There is nothing I congratulate myself on more heartily than on never having joined a sect.” That leaves your sect out.
Torqeumada and the Pope were in close communication, regardless of the distance between them. What Torquemada did, he did at the bidding of the Roman Popae, and with permission from Isabella and Ferdinand. He was, after all, Isabella’s confessor.
> That leaves your sect out.
I don’t ascribe to any “sect”.
Let us follow Jesus, even as Paul followed Jesus.
We are not perfect. But we must pursue The Way the Savior set before us.
