re: #126 Charles

He was only trying to help them see the error of their ways—being cruel to be kind. It in no ways justifies what happened to him in the end—but to make him a saint? And my family wonders why I left the Catholics. The flip side is some Protestant leaders like Cramner tortured counter-Reformers and then ended up on the pyre when Mary I ascended to the throne. Fun times indeed.

At least none of them used water-boards and caterpillars-nothing so inhumane.
