Yet over and over again, like a drumbeat, all you hear about is the Black Legend of the Spanish Inquisition of the Catholic Church. Stop and think. Why is that? Food for thought.....

"They didn't actually kill as many as you'd think" is not a wonderful apologia for the Inquisition. Whether they got a conviction or not, their methods of trying someone were bad enough. And I certainly don't trust their definition of "collaboration", especially if the punishment is "convert or die."
