The Albigenses were a people of the reformed religion, who inhabited the country of Albi.

As vladimir998 correctly points out, this is nonsense.

If the Albigenses where "a people of the reformed religion," I guess the Unitarian-Universalists are people of the old-line orthodox religion?

The Albigenses were a dualistic sect which scorned marriage and childbearing and encouraged homosexuality and ritual suicide. In fact, the sect came from Bulgaria, which is why the slang term "bugger" (from "Bulgar") in English means ... well, you get the picture.

And Catholics persecuting the good Protestant citizens of Paris in the third century?

Catholics have done enough awful things in history without you having to rely on fables like this junk, Gamecock.

Is that why hippies are always eating "Bulgar?"
