Gee...that could just as easily describe Cardinal Wolsey, Queen Mary Tudor and the various and sundry inquisitors imposed upon the non-Catholic Christians in England.
“and sundry inquisitors imposed upon the non-Catholic Christians in England.”
Nice try but there really were no inquisitors in England. No inquisitors’ tribunal was established in England that I know of and certainly none by the papacy for instance. That was also the case in Ireland, Wales, Scotland (I believe), most of Scandinavia and most of Catholic eastern Europe.
