That wasn’t what the inquisition was. It was the Protestants that were running around burning witches. The inquisition was a formal process to investigate accused heretics not some crazy torture policy like the Protestants like to believe.

Have you read Foxe's Book of Martyrs? That's what the Inquisition was, whether you believe it or not.

Do you know the Inquisitors were known to dig up the bones of those who dared translate the Word of God into their native tongues and burn them if they evaded capture during their lifetime?

Do you know the Jesuit co-coadjutor Guy Fawkes tried to blow up King James and the entire British Parliament because he dared translate the Word of God into English?

And you're referring to the Puritans when you bring up "It was the Protestants that were running around burning witches." The Puritans were an offshoot of the Anglican church, which essentially shared the doctrines of the Roman Catholic Church, with the only exception being Henry VIII and his successors replaced the Pope. Here, we see the dangers of concentrating that much spiritual power into one man's hands, whether it be the Pope, the King of England, or Cotton Mather.

And people who were now able to read the Word of God in their native tongues determined the Roman Catholic Church was lying about many things. These "heretics" were tortured and burned at the stake by the Inquistion for the crime of refusing to admit a piece of bread is magically transformed into God when a Latin incantation is spoken (this was pre-Vatican II, of course). They dared to say communion is simply a remembrance of Christ and should occur on the Passover, and that Jesus was sacrificed once and only once. For that crime, they either were burnt at the stake, or, if they recanted, their throats were then slit so they couldn't change their minds.

Also, no sin will condemn you to hell. Jesus died for them all. It's up to us to accept the free gift of salvation and go and sin no more. And when we do make mistakes, we confess our sins, not to a mortal priest, but to Jesus Himself.

1 John 1:9

If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
