They didn't have a choice either you were the religion that they wanted you t be or you were held as prisoner ,executed ,or tortured till you died. the Spanish inquisition was started by king Ferdinand and queen Isabella they wanted to make sure that no other religion was being practiced besides Christianity. if you were accused of heresy (the practice of another religion) you were sentenced to die. more than two thirds of the population was killed during either the Spanish inquisition or the Portuguese inquisitions.
The Spanish Inquisition, formally, the Tribunal of the Holy Office of the Inquisition, was a tribunal established in 1478 by Catholic Monarchs Ferdinand II of Aragon and Isabella I of Castile. It was intended to maintain Catholic orthodoxy in their kingdoms, and to replace the medieval inquisition which was under papal control. The Inquisition worked in large part to ensure the orthodoxy of recent converts, especially Jews, Muslims and others. Various motives have been proposed for the monarchs' decision to found the Inquisition, such as increasing political authority, weakening opposition, suppressing conversos, and profiting from confiscation of the property of convicted heretics. The new body was under the direct control of the Spanish monarchy. It was not definitively abolished until 1833, during the reign of Isabella II.For more information go to Wikipedia.org

The Holy Inquisition helped the Catholic Church by protecting her from her enemies that wanted nothing more than to destroy her. However, it was not established by the Church but by the Spanish Government.
Although the Spanish Inquisition was licensed by the Catholic Church, it was primarily a work of the Spanish Crown. Mostly the Inquisition itself was the "tactic" if you will. If someone was reported to the Inquisitor, then an investigation was held, if there was enough evidence, the person would be brought in and questioned. Contrary to "popular opinion" the Inquisition was very mild compared to the civil government, and many cases are known of people who deliberately confessed to some transgression to get their case transferred to the Inquisition to receive more lenient and better treatment.
Historians distinguish four different manifestations of the Inquisition:the Medieval Inquisition (1184-1230s)the Spanish Inquisition (1478-1834)the Portuguese Inquisition (1536-1821)the Roman Inquisition (1542 - c. 1860 )
Answer 1This conflict was felt by all religions. The Inquisition was a dreadful time in history when the church was more feared than loved, if an individual didn't see things the way they should they were punished harshly.Answer 2The question does not make sense as put. The Spanish Inquisition was a form of peacetime religious repression of other religious minorities. There was no conflict, only government brutalization of its subjects.
The Inquisition sponsored by the Spanish Government. However, despite what Protestant revisionist say, few people were actually killed. More Catholics were killed by the government of Henry VIII in England than heretics killed in the Spanish Inquisition.
Anything they could dream up -- the more horrible the better in their sick minds. Much of it is too terrible for me to discuss right now!
The general term is "The Inquisition". It was most brutal in Spain but spanned the Roman Catholic Church. The "Congregation for Universal Inquisition" was erected in the Roman Curia in 1542. The name was changed to the "Congregation of the Holy Office" in 1908 and was changed again to the "Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith" in 1965. It was moibund until revived and strengthed by Cardinal Ratzigar under the auspices of Pope John Paul II (names sound familiar?). See the Related Links. The Spanish Inquisition as we know it with the brutal torture and forced conversion of the Jewish populace was for the most part in only Spain. Although, at the time of the Spanish Inquisition Spain (or it's various feudalistic kingdoms like Castile and Aragon) had holdings in other places of Europe like Sicily for example. In those places there was a more toned down Inquisition that wasn't as large scale and brutal as the one occurring in Seville and other portions of Spain.
