E74 La Santa Inquisición en la Nueva España - El Horror de la Hoguera

from Intermediate Spanish Stories · host InterSpanish

 The Holy Inquisition was established in 1478 in Spain and later expanded to its colonies, including New Spain in the Americas under the protection of the Spanish Crown and the Catholic Church .Its primary goal was to enforce religious conformity and combat heresy, and it exercised strong ideological and religious control for almost 300 years.In its quest to preserve Catholic orthodoxy, it persecuted and punished hundreds of people, particularly among those who had converted to Christianity from other faiths, and accused them of committing alleged crimes against the faith, many of them without solid evidence or guarantees of justice.The legacy of the Inquisition remains as a reminder of the dangers of religious fanaticism and the abuse of power in the name of faith.Its story serves as a warning of the importance of always defending pluralism, human rights, and freedom of conscience without fear of persecution. Send me a text but know that I can’t respond hereUpdated official intro without the season year Support the showYou will find the full transcript behind the show notes:  https://interspanish.buzzsprout.comIf you have a story or topic you would like me to cover, please send your suggestions to: [email protected] visit my socials:https://linktr.ee/InterSpanish
