This was a very enlightening lecture which I found as I study the late Middle Ages. It really gave life to this Doctor of the Church. My only criticism is not related to the subject material per say, but the use of the term "anti-Judaism" by the speaker. The Christian Church was not "anti-Judaism,' which implies only a theological disagreement. Indeed, the Inquisition, particularly later in Spain, was not content to argue with "Judaism." Its aim was to wipe out Jews. Even sincere converts from the Jewish people to Catholicism were targeted and murdered. Jews were expelled from England, France, Spain, and other places. These were not anti-Judaism, they were antisemitic, whose universal meaning is prejuidice against Jewish people.

Thank God I’m Orthodox. We don’t have nominalist left-wing infiltrators like yourself in our church. People like you have completely ruined the Latin church with your vapid revolutionary nonsense. This is why healthy, radical traditionalism is rapidly spreading among your young people. So when they become the majority, which is inevitable (they actually hunger for the Word, not worldly politics) don’t sit back wondering where it all went wrong or how it happened. When you find yourself wondering, “who radicalised these people?”, don’t strain yourself too hard; just take a good cold, hard look in the mirror.

“Europe gets 5 patrons.” Is that enough?

[@georgelesar5376]

Catherine of Siena condemned that "which is against nature" - Homosexuals and Lesbians - and she spoke of the stench and misery in which they dwell.

nah

That’s why we must be born again. John 3:3

And who was she to judge?...Jesus didn't judge gay and lebsians...why should she...??? Sounds very unchristlike to me...

[@wendyfield7708]

I don’t think Catherine ever mentioned homosexuals and lesbians. I was involved in translating her letters from the 14th century Italian. This is your interpretation.

@@wendyfield7708 Thank you.
