The Cathars and The Albigensians
17th October 2021 @ 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm BST
FreeThe Cathars derived their influence from early Egypt, as the Templars did. The teachings of their “perfecti” spread from Italy and Southern France over much of Europe including Germany and helped bring about the Reformation. A wonderfully enlightened form of Christianity, believing in reincarnation, practising non-violence and vegetarianism, they were mercilessly eradicated on the orders of Pope Innocent III.
