Atrocities of the Christian Church
Â
Torture was enthusiastically applied by early Church officials for three reasons:
 To force confessions or secret information from those accused of heresy or witchcraft, whether guilty or innocent;
To discourage dissent and intellectual freedom; and
To persuade Jews, Muslims, and other non-believers to accept Christianity.
 Scroll down to read about some of the fiendishly ingenious instruments and techniques by which innocent victims were s-l-o-w-l-y tortured in the name of the sweet and gentle savior, Jesus Christ. You will see that great effort went into refining the art of torture, taxing the limits of medieval technology and medical knowledge to inflict agony on the human body. Since the purpose of torture is to cause savage pain without killing, especial attention was devoted to torturing the feet, the parts remotest from the brain and vital organs. I apologize for injecting any humor into the text, but the subject really is rather dreadful. NOT FOR THE FAINT OF HEART!!
