@debjshaw @Drstevenhobbs In the grip of the Spanish Inquisition many recanted after 'the water cure.'
20,000 were burned because of Torquemada, who was evil personified; using the excuse of religion for his own sadistic perversions.
After his death his tomb was defiled & his bones ritually burned.

@debjshaw @DrKristieLeong Oh, I love peonies!
Such lush, blowsy, extrovert flowers.
@debjshaw Thanks for this, Deb. Oddly enough, I'm writing about Rome in 880 - 960AD and this is helpful.
Cheers!
