I'd love to do some Internet searching on this, but I'm a little tied up. Eben's correct it was a nasty time to be a Jew, and as I remember any religion or sect that wasn't Catholic. Sort of like the Spain's version of the Salem Witch Hunts X 1000. Ferdinand and Isabel went to the Pope and asked if they could go ahead with their little Inquisition idea and were told, "OK! Great! Thanks for volunteering! You go have fun with that!", but then when the Pope found out that "purifying" people basically meant "off-ing" them in very creative yet horriffic and painful ways, F and I used politics to prevent him from stopping it.
