@@pedroarjona6996So can you seperate truth from myth? What is true and what isn't? I just hear Leyenda negra etc it almost sounds like you are saying the The Inquisitions didnt happen.
@@Ayo.Ajisafe The Inquisition did happen, torture was used to extract confessions about matters that are not considered crimes today. Those are facts. The Spanish Inquisition were far more cruel than their contraparts in other part of Europe, that is a myth; torture and public execution for religious crimes was prevalent in Europe. If you take the number of executions by percentage of the population, France win, and Spain and England are close second places.
The spanish inquisition wasn't what people believes, specially compared to other countries, like the french inquisition: check for instance Loudun case in France compared with San Plácido's in Spain, similar cases of possession solved in very different ways, the french inquisitors burned everybody, the spanish inquisitors didn't believe a word about some devil's actions there... and certainly it's far from the horrors unleashed by Lutheranism and Calvinism, check numbers or particular appalling cases, like Miguel Servet's, the spanish guy that discovered the lung's blood circulation. He was dropout from France (not Spain), went to Geneva (not Spain) and there he was burned... So yeah, blame Spain for everything 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
You want to downplay the Catholic Faith's crimes by "whatabout'ing" other countries' and faiths crimes'. You are not succeeding. All of them, the infamy of Spain and Catholicism included, are liable.

Brandon Day i would not say the whole thing to be wrong. The iron maiden is wrong and some of the facts. The rest is about right(torture to get people clear from other religions ) but some other facts are more like the witch trials facts.
Yes, a lot of these incredible claims were black legend myths created during the 19th century, along with the claim that the church claimed the world was flat. This stuff went down as a fact, when in reality it was made up by book authors to sell sensational stories.

This video is just historical fiction. I knew from the beginning that the Iron Maiden would be at this video, and to the people that don’t know that was created in the 1800s when the inquisition was not even a thing anymore. Was never used or created by the inquisition.

Inquisition didn't actually care that much about the Muslim and Jews, wasn't their department. Their department was dealing with local superstition and issues within the religion.
Myth: The Inquisition would make frequent use of disfiguring torture. Truth: Torture was a standard method of "justice" at the time, with secural courts making fequent use of the practice, and some going as far as insisting that justice was not served unless torture was employed. The Inquisition by contrast was only allowed to use torture once, and for a period of time not exceeding 15 minutes. Inquistors would never take part in the application of torture. Further children, pregnant women, the infirm and the very old were not allowed to be tortured. The kind of torture that was used could not maim, scar, or dismember the victim, nor could any torture be life threatening. Finally, torture was used infrequently, and when it was the victim would be shown the instrument of his torture and given the opportunity to confess.
Actually the Spanish Inquisition wasn't the worst, it was the most famous one because of the propaganda that the enemies of the Spanish Empire did, the worst one was the Lutheran one which burned over 25000 supposed witches while the Spanish one "only" burnt around 500. I'm not saying the Spanish Inquisition wasn't horrible, just clearing that it wasn't the worst, probably by far.
This is the only time I have seen the Iron Maiden being described like it was actually ever used, and the users didn't fully utilize it. Can you imagine what you would find inside one if someone was installed and then, say, shoved off a rocky cliff? 😳
I'm starting to really distrust the info graphic show, there has never actually been proof of iron maidens being used, and it's mostly accepted by scholars as a hoax
@@CalobAdamsInfamous913 the structure exists but actual accounts of it being used are very very sparse, leading most scholars to believe its use is likely falsified
Lets be very clear: Those people who tortured other people are not Christian's. Jesus said the law is fulfilled by love. First loving God above all else, then love others as yourself. That's what he said. The torturers were clearly of Satan.
This is what Jesus said and preached: Matthew 5:43-46 KJV Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy. [44] But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; [45] That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust. [46] For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans (tax collecters) the same?" Footnote: Tax-collecters were regarded as evil back then, but I won't get into that and go off topic.
This makes me so sad. As a Christian, it's horrible to see what power hungry false converts did to innocent people. Jesus would never approve of such methods. He let people decide for themselves and let them go down the path they chose. He never forced Himself on anyone. It breaks my heart to see how the church did something so awful
Us as the Spanish Inquisition were there to humble the new religion and people as a whole to let them know who’s still very real , that mass delusion would not possess over our land and people . The Christian’s and Jews were ignorant to that fact that we still existed , yet they chose to remain ignorant even with warning , and torture and death was the end all .
All countries had Inquisitions but not from Church, just the rulers: The torture was allways with a doctor. And in Spain there were no more than 100 people burned. The rack was used in London at first and wasn't invented until 1420. No way of torture was used that inquisitors imagine. Bro the creator of the video had a lot of imagination with the Boot, thumscrew and the breast ripper. Another more that was invented after 400 years of inquisition: Judas chair in 16th century. Bro I'm not going to talk about Heretic fork because you will laught and as say before no more than 100 mens were burned. And the Iron maiden was invented in 18th century. Realy. Have you said that after they were inocent they were killed? Now you are saying that terrorist are because Inquisition?
It was only after 800 years the Muslims called The Morris had the property that the Christians wanted and so eventually they outlawed every religion which was made the Spanish Inquisition approximately only 2,000 people were killed it still wasn't right now they were better people we can make more conscientious efforts to be better to each other
How about a video on the protestant inquisiton? Yes, they tortured and burned people the same. Also, you should check your sources about the Iron Maiden. This artifact was first mentioned in the XIX century, and the ones made, especially the one from Nuremberg, had no spikes and were made just based on written descriptions of dubious origins. There were no Iron Maidens during the middle ages and certainly not during the Spanish Inquisition which was legally terminated in in 1834. Your graphics are good, but your info is not.

So much historical inaccuracy here. It's sad how many people have been fooled by this video's misinformation, judging by the most upvoted comments. While this video makes some valid points, it gets a lot of things wrong. Here's some of this video's biggest problems; * The Spanish Inquisition was founded in the 15th century, not the 12th like other Inquisitions. Pope Alexander's decree didn't apply to the Spanish Inquisition, which was distinct from the other Inquisitions. * It mattered a great deal whether the confessions were real or false. * Death from torture and drawing blood were also prohibited. * They did not use or invent the Iron Maiden. * The Spanish Inquisition lasted 354 years. * Few people tried by the Spanish Inquisition were executed. Most were either just fined or imprisoned. * People tried by the Spanish Inquisition could name those with a grudge against them, and that testimony would be dismissed as revenge-mongering.
And the Catholic Church wonders why the Protestants became so popular. Hmm... I wonder. Nobody with a brain would still be Catholic after the Spanish Inquisition.
Fact check: the Romans crucified him, not the Jews. The Romans were the ones who prosecuted the first Christians- kind of ironic because Christianity became the official religion of the Roman Empire in the time of Constantine
The title is "Spanish Inquisition", but it's misleading. Most of the video describes the procedures of other inquisitorial institutions, like the Roman or the French, and even protestant. Each country inquisition was different, in time, procedures, brutality... In Spain, only 2% of cases ended in death sentence. Torture was documented and monitored by a surgeon to make sure no permanent damage was done, and no more than a certain amount of time. Some of those apparatus weren't used in Spanish Inquisition, and the seizing assets practice was done mainly in Center Europe.
No single one of the devices seeing in the video was used by the spanish inquisition and they was not allowed to prosecute non christians. But what matters the historical accuracy? By the way, english, french and german inquisition was much more brutal and bloodthristy but, again, what matters?
“The history of Religion is a horror story. And if you doubt it, look to the past, and see what humanity has done in the name of their gods over the millennia.”
"In my travels through the vast Spanish empire I have been amazed at how Spaniards treat Indians, like others, even forming mestizo families and creating hospitals and universities for them. I have met indigenous and even military mayors and bishops. in the social peace, well-being and general happiness that we already wanted for us in the territories that with so much effort, we are taking from them ». "Spain is the wise Greece, the imperial Rome, England the Turkish corsair". These are words of Charles Darwin's grandfather. It's not the only one. We collect a dozen testimonies of great historians that demolish the secular image of a cruel, fanatical and obscurantist Spain. The Spaniards did not exterminate any aboriginal nation - as dozens of them exterminated our ancestors the English "Between Cape Horn and the North Pole there was not a bad English hovel nor a single son of England, Spain [...] He bled for a conquest so huge that even today no nation could give men or money necessary to put the company at the level of global progress [...] ". Charles F. Lummis (USA, 1854-1928), historian. "The world owes (Spain) to have achieved the recovery of Spain for Christian Europe during the Reconquest. As well as the extension of Western culture in its Spanish version to the rest of the world from the Discovery of America. Also the first outbreaks of international law and the defeat of Napoleonic imperialism ». Stanley G. Payne (USA, 1934), historian. "Humanity owes eternal gratitude to the Spanish Monarchy, since the multitude of scientific expeditions that it has financed has made possible the extension of geographical knowledge."
SO many mistakes and misinformation in this video. I am only going to say that you were lucky if the inquisition came after you. Or do you think that the ordinary justice at the time did not use torture? Or ordinary justice in other European countries didn't pursue heresy? And yes, you expected the Spanish Inquisition at that time. Confessions taken from torture were not valid in front of the tribunal. Accusations were taken also skeptically. Just inform yourself.
"The use of iron maidens is a myth that was heightened by the belief that people of the Middle Ages were uncivilized; evidence of their popularity is difficult to prove."

“We promise, all of this sadistic, horrific torture for our own obvious self-gain and sick pleasure is all in the name of Jesus Christ and God’s love.” - The Church

Lo que más me enoja es que al final el vídeo culpa la a la inquisición por eventos modernos llevados a cabo por los gobiernos secualares y en su mayor parte ateos de occidente, que basandome en las imagenes probablemente se refiere a las invaciones a paises de medio oriente.
Incluso me parece pero tal vez este equivocado. El vídeo esta del lado de grupos religiosos de Medio Oriente, los cuales algunos fueron muy violentos y cometieron atrosidades similares a los supuestos crimenes que fueron cometidos en la inquisición. Que de primeras el vídeo se basa en la leyenda negra, por los que gran parte del video esta erróneo sobre la Inquisición.

The spanish inquisition wasn't what people believes, specially compared to other countries, like the french inquisition:
check for instance Loudun case in France compared with San Plácido's in Spain, similar cases of possession solved in very different ways, the french inquisitors burned everybody, the spanish inquisitors didn't believe a word about some devil's actions there...
and certainly it's far from the horrors unleashed by Lutheranism and Calvinism, check numbers or particular appalling cases, like Miguel Servet's, the spanish guy that discovered the lung's blood circulation. He was dropout from France (not Spain), went to Geneva (not Spain) and there he was burned...

The fact that people actually believe this highlights the need of another inquisition.

Hello Hashir
@@daniel_alex erm

Stuff like this happens but to think this was normal and legal is just amazing
Myth: The Inquisition would make frequent use of disfiguring torture.
Truth: Torture was a standard method of "justice" at the time, with secural courts making fequent use of the practice, and some going as far as insisting that justice was not served unless torture was employed.
The Inquisition by contrast was only allowed to use torture once, and for a period of time not exceeding 15 minutes. Inquistors would never take part in the application of torture. Further children, pregnant women, the infirm and the very old were not allowed to be tortured.
The kind of torture that was used could not maim, scar, or dismember the victim, nor could any torture be life threatening.
Finally, torture was used infrequently, and when it was the victim would be shown the instrument of his torture and given the opportunity to confess.
Actually the Spanish Inquisition wasn't the worst, it was the most famous one because of the propaganda that the enemies of the Spanish Empire did, the worst one was the Lutheran one which burned over 25000 supposed witches while the Spanish one "only" burnt around 500. I'm not saying the Spanish Inquisition wasn't horrible, just clearing that it wasn't the worst, probably by far.

Me: *plays music too loud*
Neighbor:"HERATIC!"

Probablly also you: OH FRICK-
Lets be very clear: Those people who tortured other people are not Christian's. Jesus said the law is fulfilled by love. First loving God above all else, then love others as yourself. That's what he said. The torturers were clearly of Satan.
Arguable, but they did act in the name of Christianity and to bolster the power of the church. That's a stain that'll never go away.
You sure it was satan? Cause they…definitely did this in the name of Christ
This is what Jesus said and preached:
Matthew 5:43-46 KJV
Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy. [44] But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; [45] That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust. [46] For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans (tax collecters) the same?"
Footnote: Tax-collecters were regarded as evil back then, but I won't get into that and go off topic.
This makes me so sad. As a Christian, it's horrible to see what power hungry false converts did to innocent people. Jesus would never approve of such methods. He let people decide for themselves and let them go down the path they chose. He never forced Himself on anyone. It breaks my heart to see how the church did something so awful
Us as the Spanish Inquisition were there to humble the new religion and people as a whole to let them know who’s still very real , that mass delusion would not possess over our land and people . The Christian’s and Jews were ignorant to that fact that we still existed , yet they chose to remain ignorant even with warning , and torture and death was the end all .
All countries had Inquisitions but not from Church, just the rulers:
The torture was allways with a doctor.
And in Spain there were no more than 100 people burned.

So much historical inaccuracy here. It's sad how many people have been fooled by this video's misinformation, judging by the most upvoted comments.
While this video makes some valid points, it gets a lot of things wrong. Here's some of this video's biggest problems;
* The Spanish Inquisition was founded in the 15th century, not the 12th like other Inquisitions. Pope Alexander's decree didn't apply to the Spanish Inquisition, which was distinct from the other Inquisitions.
* It mattered a great deal whether the confessions were real or false.
* Death from torture and drawing blood were also prohibited.
* They did not use or invent the Iron Maiden.
* The Spanish Inquisition lasted 354 years.
* Few people tried by the Spanish Inquisition were executed. Most were either just fined or imprisoned.
* People tried by the Spanish Inquisition could name those with a grudge against them, and that testimony would be dismissed as revenge-mongering.

Fact check: the Romans crucified him, not the Jews. The Romans were the ones who prosecuted the first Christians- kind of ironic because Christianity became the official religion of the Roman Empire in the time of Constantine
The title is "Spanish Inquisition", but it's misleading. Most of the video describes the procedures of other inquisitorial institutions, like the Roman or the French, and even protestant. Each country inquisition was different, in time, procedures, brutality... In Spain, only 2% of cases ended in death sentence. Torture was documented and monitored by a surgeon to make sure no permanent damage was done, and no more than a certain amount of time. Some of those apparatus weren't used in Spanish Inquisition, and the seizing assets practice was done mainly in Center Europe.
No single one of the devices seeing in the video was used by the spanish inquisition and they was not allowed to prosecute non christians. But what matters the historical accuracy?
By the way, english, french and german inquisition was much more brutal and bloodthristy but, again, what matters?
Were they used on non-Christians??? Wow makes us feel better
