Re: Numbers of martyrs of Rome
But Llorente does not support the figure of millions. From your source.
quote:
Llorente had access to the records of the Spanish Inquisition. Overall, Llorente in his ―A
Critical History of the Inquisition of Spain,‖ 1823, gave a much smaller figure. He
calculated that more than 300,000 suffered persecution in Spain, of whom 31,912 died in
the flames.
Serious historians dismiss even this figure as ridiculously high.
quote:
Llorente, the ex-Secretary of the Holy Office who wrote a bitterly antagonistic account of it at the beginning of the 19th century, based on manuscript material which is no longer extant, states that all told, from its foundation down to 1808, the total number of heretics burned in person in Spain alone totalled 31,912 These figures are so enormous as to seem highly suspicious.
THe Spanish Inquisition, Cecil Roth page 123
The Spanish Inquisition - Cecil Roth - Google Books
quote:
came up with the incredible figures of 31,912 relaxations in person, 17,659 relaxations in effigy, and 291,450 penitents, a grand total of 341,021 victims. All the historical evidence has shown this greatly exaggerated figure to be without any foundation.
The Spanish Inquisition, Henry Kamen page 280
quote:
Llorente put the total at nearly 32,000 [burned in person], but his method of calculation is fantastic and ridiculous.
The Spanish Inquisition A.S. Turberville page 112
Seems no one in historical field trust Llorente. He

Re: Numbers of martyrs of Rome
WTF?
I quoted 3. I can find lots more. You have not referenced any historians.

Re: Crime and its punishment aren't the same thing
And again everyone will tell you your simplistic interpretations do not represent the reality. Have you read anything anyone has posted? Or did you read them and you have decided it is all Jesuit propaganda?

OK, I'll take it all back then.
Now was admitting you are wrong that hard?

Re: Crime and its punishment aren't the same thing
Show evidence it is nonsense and someone may be willing to listen. If you can not why do you even post anything.

The victims were unarmed, the perps undressed them and herded them out to die.

Chris Pinto is a liar for Jesus, with seemingly no research of critical thinking skills. So say other Christians.
