In the 16th century, Dutch Calvinists made the Netherlands a very inhospitable place for Catholics. Not only were churches, altars, and statues attacked, but 19 Franciscans and other Catholic priests were tortured & murdered for holding firm in their belief in the Real Presence. In this episode, Scott treks thru their story, and the background for the anti-Catholic hatred in the Netherlands.
