Arnaud Amalric (Latin: Arnoldus Amalricus; died 1225) was a Cistercian abbot who played a prominent role in the Albigensian Crusade. It is reported that prior to the massacre of Béziers, Amalric, when asked how to distinguish Cathars from Catholics, responded, "Kill them [all], for God knows which are His own."
The last victim of the Inquisition Cayetano Ripol was burned on (July 26) in 1826
In 1307 Pope Clement V conspired with Francis II of France to kill the Knights Templar.
Popee Leo "The Great" threw Manicheans to the lions with all of the glee once reserved for Christians. A Manichean priest that the church subsequently named the Great one or St Augustine, saw the deed and saw the light and became a Christian, then with the help of a monk by the name of Jerome, helped write the (Latin Vulgte) Bible, ensuring that Manichean concepts like good god, bad god, heaven and hell were enshrined as doctrine.
Henry VIIII and his daughter Elizabeth I, burned and beheaded Catholics, then Henry's Catholic daughter Marry when she ascended the throne did the same to Anglicans.
Thanks! Things old are indeed new again. But I had it that it was Simon de Montfort at Montsegur with the infamous papal guidance. Must have a book around here somewhere. You know, those things made out of piled-up paper? Huh. Just joking. Same point, regarding evil of exclusive marketing rights for god....
Thanks I had for decades thought the same, but I couldn't remember his name, and when I googled it, surprise, Arnaud Almaric came up. So I went with that, much more likely.
Off hand, I suspect that some clergy, blamed it on Montfort rather than a rep of the church
