Tariq Siddiqui: What research? .... Why do I get the feeling that Gilbert Lawrence is going to win this prize hands down? Perhaps if I want to give myself a chance I must start some revisionist history myself. ....
Gilbert: Tariq 'complains bitterly' about his inability to lay his hands on David Goldstein's book about the inquisition and the Muslim-Jewish relationships in the Middle Ages.... and the many references Goldstein quoted to support his conclusions. What a pity! :=))) Question: Is there a Muslim-Jewish collusion not to make available some constructive and sympathetic Catholic writings? :=)) Jusht a speculation and conjecture. :=))) Tariq, how about posting some statistics on Jewish and Crypto-Jewish immigration and their victimization in Goa 1550-1800? Ok! let's make it simple: How about posting any statistical data you have about the inquisition in Goa. No editorials or one liners please. You are smarter than that. Now if you write to me, "Do the work yourself" .... then you (and others with opinions like yours) may want to hold off your opinions till you get your independent statistics of the Inquisition in Goa to back your attitudes. :=)) My statistics are/will be on the net. Sorry they do not agree with yours - That's of course if you have any.
