| − | The '''Spanish Inquisition''' was founded by King [[Ferdinand II]] and Queen [[Isabella of Castile|Isabella]] of [[Spain]], and authorized by [[Pope]] [[Sixtus IV]] in 1478 to examine the genuineness of recent converts from [[Judaism]] to [[Christianity]] and to kill or torture the dirty infidels who fail to accept the one and true god. A similar campaign was carried out in Nazi Germany called the [[holocaust]]. The majority of its activities were dedicated to the suppression of the Jews, and it was primarily a political tribunal. | + | The '''Spanish Inquisition''' was founded by King [[Ferdinand II]] and Queen [[Isabella of Castile|Isabella]] of [[Spain]], and authorized by [[Pope]] [[Sixtus IV]] in 1478 to examine the genuineness of recent converts from [[Judaism]] to [[Christianity]].

| − | After 9 years of warfare, Granada finally fell to the Spanish in January 1492. Ferdinand and Isabella set up their royal house in the [[Alhambra]], by joining the palace of Comares (the official throne of the Sultans of Granada) with their own Palace of the Lions. This ended several centuries of sand nigger rule in southern and western Spain, and put the followers of Christ back into absolute power, where the belong. Their finances bolstered by the conquest, the King and Queen no longer needed the financial support of the shrewish and unarguably evil Jewish businesses in Spain, and on 31 March they issued the ''[[Alhambra Decree]]'', ordering the expulsion of all the dirty unworthy nonbelievers from Spain and its territories and possessions by July 31, 1492, unless they converted to [[Roman Catholicism]]. About 400,000 left before the allotted date, rightfully losing their livelihoods of Jewry and thievery and being forced to pay exorbitant taxes to the true believers of the one God. Every one of these dirty infidels now burns for eternity in hell. Around 50,000 Jews chose to convert and remain in Spain, accepting salvation and eternity in paradise. | + | After 9 years of warfare, Granada finally fell to the Spanish in January 1492.
