The inquisition closed the gaps in knowledge regarding the flight paths of human heads (distance, trajectory), also it was one of the richest and most innovative periods in human history and devices of torture. Some of the best methods of torture came from that time period. Other than that, nothing.

The pursuit of monetary wealth, power within the world and prestige generally go hand in hand with corruption, they are feeding an outward desire which in turn strengthens the ego. There really is nothing wrong with this if that is the path you want to pursue in life. Inner inquiry, inner knowledge and truth both nourish and awaken the soul. This path is more difficult to tread, so fewer people choose it, because at times it is hard and very painful. This is 'my' side, because no matter what the truth reveals, I would rather know that and live that, than a life of falsity. If you pursue inquiry, knowledge and truth, then all you need comes to you anyway, just not in any excessive amount, everything gains a balance.

The Inquisition was a series of tortures... You would not get truth from it because the catholic church would hide the truth from humanity and/or once tortured the victims would say exactly what the church would want them to say..... nothing good ever comes from violence...absolutely nothing.

The Inquisition revealed the infallibility of the Pope, and the greatness of the Roman Catholic Church...

One great truth - that less than 2% of the Christian population was willing to hand heretics over to the state on the charge of sedition.

Burning innocent women at the stake can be sexually stimulating. Nowadays, priests have to resort to pedophilia and such, and still people complain. Oh, for the good old days.

Heresy was everywhere. Most confessed the same at their trials. (tone of sarcasm)

There is much to be said of wearing brown trousers.
