I read a list of the top 10 most Evil Organizations in History.
It was surprising that the Catholic Church came in #5. They were behind the Chinese Communist Party, the Communist Party of the Soviet Union (under Stalin), the Kmer Rouge and the Nazi Regime obviously, but I wouldn't have ranked the Catholic Church in the top 10 for most evil.
I guess the reason for inclusion of the Catholic Church in that ranking is Deception.
The others made no pretenses and didn't hide what they were. The Church, however, claims to help people and gains their trust, which in a way is far more devious and destructive.
Spanish Inquisition,Christian Brothers, Sisters Of Mercy, Irish Catholic children’s homes,agents in the removal of orphans from predominantly Catholic Liverpool to a new ‘ better ‘ life in Australia etc etc
I went to a Catholic boarding school; the nuns were cold hearted and totally without any charity or kindness. Got severely depressed and lost my faith. Years later I got saved and came to know what true Christianity is. Wish my family would do likewise. Catholisism is totally satanic, pagan and evil. It has a veneer of piety but is not based on God's word, the teaching is all man-made anti-christ nonsense. Shame so many are deceived.
I have seen that with Catholic School girls. My mother in law is a perfect example She is seriously mentally damaged. That being said, what my wife is/was taught within Catholicism is not far from the ordinary within Christianity. You have to separate the demonic from the ordinary. Not everyone that grew up "Catholic" is like president potatoe biden.
I remember being taught in some sort of Sunday school by a nun when I was 5 or 6. She drew the triangle with the all seeing eye and said that was God. Something made me shrink back, even at that age I knew it was wrong. Go round any catholic church and you'll find it, usually surrounded by sun-like rays.
The Crusades were a defensive war against Islam. What is your point?
