Interesting how in the 1990s they made a documentary that provided a more nuanced picture of the Inquisition, one you can't find in pop culture or standard history teaching.
Especially in Protestant countries you get a lot of negative bias about the Middle Ages. I wonder why..^_^

Share with sky. Though doubt if they are interested.

That was then, and this is now.

You have the privilage of living in the 21st century.
Today we have the sciences attending to the mind involving psychiatry and psychology.
Which is what the Lord was concerned with.

Today though?
We're post WWI, WWII, Korean war, Vietnam, Iraq and etc.

If you can't understand what the difference is between then, and now?
Well continue to go around acting like a mature individual. We know otherwise.

Some people throw into the Christian's face things that confronted people such as the Hebrews as though it happened to Christians.. For example, the Bible claims the Canaanites were killing children so some mis-construe that to mean Christians were killing babies. But the Canaanites were not worshipers of the Biblical God! The Hebrews mentioned existed a long time ago ....... before Christians came on the scene.
