This book traces the origin of the forces and personalities that
brought about the Spanish Inquisition and its impact on the larger
world. It dwells extensively on the causes and principal figures of
the Protestant Reformation, and explains how those attitudes came
to influence the evolution of modern American politics and bigotry.
A careful reading of this narrative explains how political and
religious leaders, often being somewhat interchangeable, have been
able to devise "enemies" that can be used to convince sufficient
sections of the populace to elect or retain in high office those
who portray themselves as opposed to such "enemies"; ignoring, in
so doing, the sage advice of Benjamin Franklin that "those who
would sacrifice essential liberties for a little temporary
security, deserve neither liberty nor security."
