There were more than one Inquisitions, of which the Spanish Inquisition is the most famous, and also the least objectionable, if that is something possible to say about any of the Inquisitions. Many people believe that torture was a routine tactic used by the Inquisitions, but this is not quite true. The priests found that the threat of torture was usually more successful in achieving their aims than torture itself.
