Auto-da-fé is a noun of Portuguese origin which means “Act of faith”.
The Auto-da-fé concept started in 1481 in Seville, Spain and ended in 1850 in Mexico.
The Auto-da-fé was basically a death sentence given by the Catholic Church to all the people
that were accused of committing religious offenses and for those viewed as unrepentant.
This so called “Act of faith” was considered as an important event, a ceremony that no one
should miss. And thus it was always held on Sundays or during special occasions to accommodate
a huge mass of people. This sacred sacrament consisted of burning unmercifully people alive
(heads first) in the name of God. As if !!!!!!!!!!!!
