The Inquisition, Inquisitio Haereticae Pravitatis (inquiry on heretical perversity), was the "fight against heretics" by several institutions within the justice system of the Roman Catholic Church. It started in the 12th century, with the introduction of torture in the persecution of heresy. Inquisition practices were used also on offences against canon law other than heresy.
The term "Inquisition" can apply to any one of several institutions which fought against heretics (or other offenders against canon law) within the justice-system of the Roman Catholic Church. The term "Inquisition" is usually applied to that of the Catholic Church. It may also refer to:
Generally, the Inquisition movement was concerned only with the heretical behaviour of Catholic adherents or converts, and did not concern itself with those outside its jurisdiction, such as Jews or Muslims.
Before 1100, the Catholic Church had already suppressed heresy, usually through a system of ecclesiastical proscription or imprisonment, but without using torture and seldom resorting to executions. Such punishments had a number of ecclesiastical opponents, although some countries punished heresy with the death penalty.

In the name of Christianity
Persecution, Murdering
The so called heretics
For church, for God, for profit
Judged by the hand of death
Bishops, popes the holy men
In the name of Jesus Christ
No freedom of belief
With cruelty inconceivable
Brutal inventions on their side
Forcing everyone to believe
What they shall do
Nothing's as red as blood
The inquisition draws near
And they will all appear
To accuse you of false belief
There is only one way to God
And we will show you the way
Even if it takes your life
You won't survive
If you're wrong
Accepting the holy Bible at face value
Witches, heretics they all have to burn
Judged by the hand of death
Bishops, popes the holy men
In the name of Jesus Christ
No freedom of belief
With cruelty inconceivable
Brutal inventions on their side
Forcing everyone to believe
What they shall do
Nothing's as red as blood
The inquisition draws near
And they will all appear
To accuse you of false belief
There is only one way to God
And we will show you the way
Even if it takes your life
You won't survive
