St. Augustine is a great saint to petition about the heresy we have been experiencing around here lately. As mentioned in the post, he refuted the Manichaen heresy [at one time had fallen in with the sect]. In book three of his Confessions, Augustine explains the fantasies the Manichaens offered when he hungered for real food, especially their corporal notion of God. His work against the Manichees was strong enough to keep the sect small until the heresy reared its head again in the High Middle Ages when it became known as Albignensianism.
