See, this is where it all falls down. Russell, with his almost incalculable contributions to human thought (maths, logic, philosophy), his steadfast opposition to totalitarianism and violence, his concern for the dignity and welfare of human beings, is burning in hell. Torquemada, on the other hand, played by the rules and - according to those rules - is seated at the feet of God.
The technical term for this position, unless I'm very much mistake, is 'an utter crock of shit.'
