So posting a thread drawing on Foxe's notoriously biased Book of Martyrs is a response to a rather well balanced article written D.L.? How does that work exactly?

Take, for instance, this little bit of nonsense: "The Albigenses were a people of the reformed religion, who inhabited the country of Albi."

Reformed religion?

THEY WERE NOT CHRISTIANS ! They were dualists. Dualists cannot be Christians. They scorned marriage, having children, and practiced a form of ritual murder/suicide called the "endura".

Does Foxe discuss any of that?

"They were condemned on the score of religion in the Council of Lateran, by order of Pope Alexander III."

More like they were condemned on the score of "anti-religion" since they preached a gospel of extinction and murder.

It's as balanced as the reference Proddie bashing article, wouldn't you say?

Or did you even bother to look?
