Gilbert is a valiant defender of the historical truth and the Catholic Church. Often times the truth is irksome. If you want to stop him from going over the issues over and over again you should stop challenging his truthful words. Truth and statistics are on his side. Having conducted extensive historical and statistical research, and having read excerpts from David Goldstein's book he has proven conclusively that the Catholic Church had nothing to do with the inquisition. It had nothing to do with the destruction of temples and building of churches in their place. No church was built in the exact spot where a temple once stood. The Catholic Church had nothing to do with forcible conversions. Actually, there were no forcible conversions. Those who got converted did so willingly by undergoing a change in their minds and hearts. That is why destruction of temples, which was only done by one horrible Portuguese captain, was counterproductive to the cause of conversion by gentle persuasion. Those who don't believe this have less than two cells in their brains. So please shut up and listen to him.
