Absolutely! We don't learn the truth about this in school. Lest we

forget... estimates of the death toll during the Inquisition

worldwide range as high as 9 million people and the vast majority of

them were women. Their crimes were worshipping a Goddess,

practicing medicine -- or anything that anyone wanted to accuse them

of -- as they were almost always convicted, and were not allowed to

face their accusers. Their lands and posessions were then

confiscated by the Catholic church.

 

Coming to America didn't guarantee religious freedom either, as

evidenced by the Salem Witch Trials. The Malleus Maleficarum, the

documentation that started all this carnage is perhaps the most

blood soaked documentat in all of history. The Inquisition

suppressed not only the historical knowledge of medicine, but

scientific exploration of that day. It was a tremendous loss to all

of mankind, and it's effects are still felt today.
