In summary, a form of genocide was carried out by the Catholic church because:

but the one unforgivable sin was reconciliation with the Catholic Church. There again the Albigensians were true to type. All heresies make that their chief point.

That's the real issue according to the post, and history...All heretics refuse to bow down to their pope...And of course the things you added would be a non issue if these tortured folks would have fallen down to the pope since the church (in it's mind) controlled and owned everything...

When it comes to that God forsaken religion of Rome, I count it a privilege to be called a heretic...

It sounds like you condone the errors of the Albigensians.

There is nothing in losing a war and being oppressed that makes you either correct or virtuous. Often the victors and oppressors are correct and (relatively) virtuous. That was the case in WWII, and at the Battle of Chalons (losers=Huns) and Tours (losers=Muslim Moors).

Really Iscool?

You’re down with a religion that finds sexual promiscuity OK, as long as it’s anal and not procreative?

Well, to be fair, they said it was not exactly OK. Just not as bad as eating.

So you’ve got all the breadwinners literally treated as gods, and the mothers treated like whores. And you tell the breadwinners that anal sex is OK. How often do you think the women were consenting to being sodomized just for something to eat?

Is that a society you like? One where women are routinely sodomized by virtual strangers, and treated as demonic seductresses if they have babies? You think that’s better than the Catholic church?

All these Albigensian “saints” who “heroically” starved themselves rather than being “contaminated” by food. Ya think maybe one or two of them were saying to themsleves, “well, it beats having my rectum torn apart by anal sex”?

Let’s see, those Albigensians figured:

* Sodomy is fine, but motherhood is evil.

* Being deathly skinny is fabulous

* Meat is murder

* The only true evil in the world is orthodox Christianity.

* God was evil to have created mankind.

Who does THIS sound like to you?
