The Malleus Maleficarum

The Malleus Maleficarum

Astral Perceptions The Spanish Inquisition The Spanish Inquisition (Warfare) After the Spanish Reconquista, many different religions lived mostly harmoniously in the Iberian Peninsula. However, many religious conflicts and threats to the crown began to alarm king Ferdinand II of Aragon who pressured Pope Sixtus IV to take action against the infidels, in the form of an inquisition. With the threat of Ferdinand's army being close to Rome and the possibility of his army's withdrawal, Sixtus agreed to send inquisitors to Spain with the sole purpose to spread Christianity and punish the unbelievers. They all had a basic procedure that started with "El Edicto de Gracia" or the Edict of Grace. Once someone was denounced, he was incarcerated until his case was reviewed by the calificadores (a type of jury). The sentencing depended widely on the crime. The arrival of the Enlightenment slowed the Spanish Inquisition. In total it's estimated that between 800 and 20,000 people were killed because of the Inquisition.
