Protestants also had their Inquisition after the reformation. It is just not fair to judge the actions of the Church by our standards and culture today. If you were around during that time how would you have acted against heresies, which triggered the Inquisition? You might be a pagan or an Arian now if not for the Inquisition.

Women wearing pants.
Inspite of the fact that men were not allowed to wear them either. (Think about it: Jesus never wore pants!! Pants were originally designed for horse-back riding, but the first pair made were made to look like a dress when you were standing.)
