The Inquisition is what the question is looking for, but this is not the case. First of all the Catholic Church has never forced non-Catholics to convert to Catholicism. Second, the secret testimony during the Inquisition was to protect all parties involved, and believe me, they needed the protection. For a real look at the Inquisition, please pick up Diane Moczar's book Seven Lies About Catholic History.
