The term Inquisition (Latin: Inquisitio Haereticae Pravitatis Sanctum Officium) refers broadly to a number of historical movements orchestrated by the Pope and aimed at securing Papal religious and financial authority in Europe through the conversion, and sometimes persecution, of alleged heretics.

In Spain and Portugal, the auto da fes and pre-decided trials of accused heretics, often ended with men and women being burned alive. Spanish missionaries would later import the Inquisition to the New World, convicting and killing Central and South Americans who refused to convert to Catholicism from the early sixteenth century onward.

There were four major movements, starting with the Medieval Inquisition in 1184 and ending with the Spanish Inquisition in 1834.

Why? What sounds funny about a human being dieing coming back from the dead and ascending into heaven, and those who don't believe this get punished and sent to the phantom zone.

This question is not about being racist but more about how you see a person at first sight, with their race or just as them.
Example: when you see Eminem, do u see a white rapper or just a rapper. Or do you see 50 Cent as a black rapper or just a rapper. Maybe your boss or teacher, do you see them as white/black/latino/asian..... first b4 u see there character.
Just because you see their colour intially doesnt make you a racist but its just something that interests me.
For me sometimes i do see the colour first but then usually change my mind after speaking to them because just because they are of a certain race or colour then they should behave in a particular manner.

i just recently got into history, ahd descovered who i was, and i will change the world when i die. i think i had to return to find out who i was, and i do believe in reincarnations, because where do we go when we die? there are certain degrees of punishment, and that is what hell is. but since the world is in a crisis the world needs to know who the real god is, and i will be the ambassador of the world just as imhotep was. when i die the world will end, because people have miss used the powers of Ra, the sun, and people have forgotten about the sun. it makes alot of sense because what is the biggest soul in the galaxy, the sun. the sun will is the soul of all souls, so i think when we die we will assend to the sun and the sun will judge that persons soul, and then send then back down to earth, and there are different stages inthe life cycle, i think budda teaches there are 6 different cycles you can reincarnate into depending on how much your soul has sinned.

I'm not talking about some wanna-be thugs, so no racist crap, please. I'm talking about Black men who work for a living and dress casual. What is it with people that when Black men apporach someone, they act all scared. It sickens me. Can anyone explain this in a NON-RACIST manner?

Do you think there's any value in self-denial, ie the concept of surrending your own will or concerns to something else, or do you think that's more one of those Christian ideas that doesn't work?

A 21-year-old former private first class who was discharged from the Army, appeared in a federal magistrate's courtroom in Charlotte Monday.
The charges grew out of a military investigation involving up to five soldiers in the alleged March rape and killing of the female in Mahmoudiya and three of her relatives.

Prosecutors said Green and other soldiers entered the home of a family of Iraqi civilians, where he and others raped a member of the family before Green shot her and three of her relatives to death.
he Washington Post reported Monday that the rape victim was a 15-year-old girl
he found the girl dead in a corner, her hair and a pillow burned and her dress pushed up to her neck.
After they raped her, they killed her and burned her body, what your opinion of such acts and what should be done?

It's not perfect but I think it's a darn good place to live. I don't want to live anywhere else. I think it's great the freedoms we have and the rights we share. How many other Americans out there agree with me?
