Vatican Report Says the Inquisition Wasn’t so Bad After All.
From FBIS News & WAY OF LIFE LITERATURE. 

Professor Agostino Borromeo, historian of Catholicism at the Sapienza University in Rome, says the Inquisition wasn't as bad as it has been made out to be. He is the editor of a 783-page report issued by the Vatican which claims, for example, that only 1% of the 125,000 people tried by church courts as suspected heretics in Spain were executed ("Historians say Inquisition wasn't that bad," The Guardian, London, June 16, 2004). 

Catholic Cardinal Georges Cottier agrees with the report's findings and says Rome shouldn't "ask for pardon for deeds which aren't there." 

In fact, it has been estimated by careful and reputable historians that 50 million people were slaughtered for the crime of "heresy" by Roman persecutors between the AD 606 and the middle of the 19th century. This is the number cited by historian John Dowling, who published the classic "History of Romanism" in 1847 (book VIII, chapter 1, footnote 1).
