Tell me, what difference does this make? The end result is still the forfeiture of ones life. You must have stones of considerable magnitude to attempt to justify this in any way, shape or form. How dare the Catholic Church or any religious institution deem itself worthy of taking the life of even it's staunchest critic. If there were any justice in the world, the victims of these heinous acts would have marched on the Vatican and burned the fecker to the ground. Your view of these events sir, is nothing short of disgusting “While the tortures and burnings may seem cruel, it is important to remember that heretics were given many chances to confess and be forgiven before they were killed.”
