Je dovolené brániť inkvizíciu?

Téma inkvizície je zväčša spracovávaná z odsudzujúceho hľadiska. Je však oprávnená otázka, ako to skutočne bolo a či nie je dôvod tento pohľad prehodnotiť ako neobjektívny. Aj preto je dobré preto a preto má význam prečítať si malú publikáciu s titulom Je dovoleno bránit inkvizici? od českého historika Radomíra Malého, v ktorej sa autor pokúsil korektne s inkvizíciou vysporiadať a poukázať na to, že odsudzujúci pohľad na inkvizíciu môže byť vcelku veľmi mylnou paradigmou.

Este k tomu, ze ku comu sa to chcu vratit:

"And by the way, for those of you who are told, well, Jefferson wrote this famous letter to the Danbury Baptist Association and said that there's a wall of separation between church and state, go to the Jefferson Memorial as part of our walking tour that your friends can download on newt.org. Just go look at it. It says around the top of the memorial, I have sworn upon the altar of God Almighty eternal hostility against all forms of tyranny over the minds of man. Ask your secular friends what do they think Jefferson might have meant by I've sworn upon the altar of God Almighty.

Now, he could have meant large purple banana, but it's fairly hard to get there.

Three of the four walls of the memorial have references to God--quotes from Jefferson. And two days after Jefferson wrote his letter to the Baptists in Danbury--which, by the way, was a letter basically saying this shouldn't be a federal church. That's what he meant by "wall of separation"--the federal government shouldn't sponsor a church. Two days after he wrote the letter, he went out of the White House, got in a carriage, rode up Pennsylvania Avenue and went to the U.S. Capitol, where he went to church in the U.S. House chamber, which served as a church until after the Civil War.

So when people tell you, oh, you can't have the Ten Commandments on public property, they're just wrong. It's historically false. It's not true. Now, you can decide to invent a new America in which you shouldn't say "one nation under God" as part of the pledge because, after all, you will offend three atheists. But that's not the America you inherited. That's a different country. And I think it's a weaker country and I think it's a country that has no roots in terms of where its rights come from."
