I didn't expect this!

It is however, a good idea. All of these silly heretics are going to get what's coming to them. The people must learn that they must repect and live by God and the church, and harming others with some of this nonsense that is propagating throughout Spain will not be tolerated.

Besides, my church is always so bloody cold. We could use a good witch burning to heat it up.

I propose that once we elect a Pope, it should be up to him to appoint the Chief Inquisitor, who will be answerable to the Pope and, by extension, the rest of the Church.

Thud,

Damn it, man...

Nooooooooooooobody expects the Spanish Inquisition!!!

Hmmm, we must make sure no crazy inquisitor will be ´´ operating´´ inside La academia, eh?
It is important to have freedom of free thinking in there.
We could make there a place for keeping the ones persecuted by their ideas safe....

Great squids of fire, Winterus!

Old friend, what's the point of having an Inquisition against heretics, anarchists, and madmen if they have a place to run and hide in whenever Cardinal Biggles pulls out his comfy chair?

Surely all heretics will be held fully accountable by Spain and her religious leader's. There should be not a place that heretics should feel safe espousing the views held against the one 'true faith' of Spain!!!

I would pretty much like to hear the opinion of Cardinal Aidun at this one...

**ruby_maser** · April 5, 2003, 22:34

When it is determined whether or not we will allow the Academia to be safe ground for heretics, we should also decide if it wouldn't be wise to do away with any statute of limitations on these types of crimes and ban the concept of grandfathering statements made prior to the Inquisition.

Then it will be open season on all previous posts as well.

Get out your marshmallows...

**GeneralTacticus** · April 5, 2003, 22:41

We should have the Inquisition investigate statements made prior to the establishment of the Church, but ot any further back. It is not their fault if someone is misguided due to the absence of the Word.

Eta Tamali starts to hum a little ditiy that his Father taught him. He might even use this for a possible sond about the Inquisition...

We must have all sorts of different punishments for their appropriate crimes. As stated in the Wholly Testament of Espana:

The Second Book of Squidicus, Twelfth Chapter, Verses One through Five, I mean Three:

1. Licking a frozen rod of steel for those with hot tongues of dissent.

2. Burning at the stake for those whose cold hearts are guilty of heresy - and to prepare their bodies for the infernal heat of hell.

3. Stretching on the rack for those whose confessions are somewhat "short" of the truth.

Dios Mio!

If we are to remain the flower of all of Bob, we must keep the intellectual juices flowing. An Inquisition will only stifle the greatest Spanish talents! There is no excuse for not following El Rey Catolico, Don Togas, but one can maintain a healthy mind and yet still obey El Magnificente.

Winterius, where is this academia of which you speak? I fear I may have to avail myself of its protective cloisters in the near future.

I have been busy with preaching last days. It takes a lot of time so that's the reason I could not attend until today.

About the Inquisition:
The almighty God is a God who loves us. Our God has, together with his son Jesus Christ, our Lord, taught us to forgive and to have patience with our brothers. Our God is a God who wants to guide us to live a good life.

We should take an example to the almighty God and the Lord: we should guide the christians and teach them how to live and what is right and what is wrong.

Guide rather than punish.
Punishment should only be used when the person thet sinned can not be convinced by any other means.
It is not wrong to discuss thoughts ans such should keep happening at la Academia, but if people sin, they should be taught that what they do is wrong and if they keep doing it punishment will follow sooner or later.

It is ridiculous to simply crusify a person for every sin. If our God would do so, noone of us would still be alive .

Hey, everyone! Let's fry Aidun!

Oh...sorry...

Anyway, we must have a bit of an Inquisition, to flush out the non-Believers. Spain is a Catholic country. We can't have Polytheists roaming in our sacred borders! We must convert them...and nothing clears the head so well to conversion than a death sentence, eh, what?

All I'm saying is...give Holy War a chance. You see, the Devil is strong in the northern borderlands, in the woods. The demons, Azal, Azmidaeus, they all have a free hand there. In the deserts they live, under the sand. My grandfather, the desert father St. Hernan de Calamari, was exiled to the desert, and there converted, shown visions in the desert. He fought the demons. Can we?

It is known that exorcism works. Let's use it. We need to.

Perhaps you philosophers can dissent here, but remember, Spain is the Church, and the Church is the Bride of Christ. We cannot fill Spain with reckless pagans and heretics. Perhaps bonfires may not be needed, but they must be converted. By hook, or by papal crook...
