Let's see what Church "father" Tertullian has to say.
Quote:One can imagine the satisfaction of the Crusader mowing down innocent citizens of Muslim (or Christian) towns, or of the Inquisitor calmly torturing a heretic or witch while patiently transcribing every moan and scream of the victim, and experiencing the pleasure of Church father Tertullian, picturing his adversaries in hell:
How shall I admire, how laugh, how rejoice, how exult, when I behold so many proud monarchs, and fancied gods, groaning in the lowest abyss of darkness; so many magistrates who persecuted the name of the Lord, liquefying in fiercer fires than they ever kindled against the Christians; so many sage philosophers blushing in red hot flames with their deluded scholars; so many celebrated poets trembling before the tribunal, not of Minos, but of Christ; so many tragedians, more tuneful in the expression of their suffering.
