Cekada. I once somehow found my way onto his mailing list, until I asked in singularly astringent terms to be taken off it.R Jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17624645479033609279noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7534539169157708222.post-52506944225749972022010-04-09T04:51:21.690-04:002010-04-09T04:51:21.690-04:00THere were other Cathars than those in S France, b...THere were other Cathars than those in S France, but those ones were the ones most prevalent in their area as compared to less prevalent in other areas, and those were the ones called Albigensians.<br /><br />Another name for Cathars was Bulgars/Buggers. Guess what geographic area they reached W Europe from and what practise gave rise to the dirty word Buggers, so that people from that area have another ethnonym in English.<br /><br />Patarini is an Italian word for them, I guess there were some in Italy too.Hans Georg Lundahlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01055583255516264955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7534539169157708222.post-74748314084225042582010-04-09T04:02:32.432-04:002010-04-09T04:02:32.432-04:00The withholding of food and water....this same evi...The withholding of food and water....this same evil has come into vogue in the whole "right to die" ideology. What true Christian is not haunted at the memory of poor Terry Schiavo's last days? Death forced upon her by "the law of the land", with armed guards posted at her bedside, making sure that no one could give her a sip of water. Such laws and judges that made this atrocity to occur are the modern day "perfecti" it seems. God help us and deliver us from such evil.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7534539169157708222.post-71448246345632605012010-04-08T21:52:32.352-04:002010-04-08T21:52:32.352-04:00These Cathars were even sicker puppies than I'...These Cathars were even sicker puppies than I'd ever imagined before reading this post.
