Description
Secrets of the Spanish Inquisition Delve into the dark secrets of the Inquisition, a journey between history and reflection. You will discover the role of the Vatican archives, the forgiveness of John Paul II and how their echo resonates in current conflicts. We will talk about the expulsion of Jews and Muslims, the origin of terms like Marranos and Moors, and how the courts became true symbols of terror with torture, executioners and acts of faith that ended in public executions. And the last shadow of this dark age... still came until 1974, with execution by vile club. Important: this payment secures your place. The contribution to the guide is made at the end, according to your satisfaction.
