Heresy: The Dogma truth Heresy is a term used to differentiate and categorize people for battle and it is also used by some political extremists to refer to their opponents if we have free will and have the freedom to make our own choices then why push such to display evil in-which so speak against. It carries the connotation of behaviors or beliefs likely to undermine accepted morality to those in power from extorting original morals where free will is the cause of tangible evils, damnation, or other punishment an just simply the power behind all un-lawful doctrines such. we all are men and woman all are sons of man and sons of daughters. Man has the same authority as any other so why must we follow a doctrin or be punished for a belief open minded with imagination the same without means to control. why the Control for authority why denie truth and punish those who speak it. why place a cult or one belief above allowing your self to choose whats light an whats dark with an imagination creating more traditions Truths turn into dogmas the instant that they are disputed. Thus every man who utters a doubt defines a religion. Reflection heresies are really sudden explosions of faith. For it is the wrongdoing of the opposing party which compels the wise man to wage just wars. (City of God, Chapter 7, c. 426) In the traditional sense, developed as a part of the development of orthodoxy in the Roman/Byzantine Church. Church scholars studied and documented the teachings of various Christian sects in order to clearly distinguish between those they accepted as orthodox and those they rejected as heretical. Other Christian communions developed their own competing heresiological traditions as well. An ecclesiastical authority was initially an assembly of bishops, later the Pope, then an inquisitor (a delegate of the Pope) and later yet the leadership of a Protestant church (which would itself be regarded as heretical by the Pope). The definitions of state, cooperation, suppress and heresy were all subject to change during the past 16 centuries. 2.Jump up ^ Only very fragmentary records have been found of the executions carried out under Christian heresy laws during the first millennium. Somewhat more complete records of such executions can be found for the second millennium. To estimate the total number of executions carried out under various Christian heresy laws from 385 AD until the last official Roman Catholic heresy execution in 1826 AD would require far more complete historical documentation than is currently available. The Roman Catholic Church by no means had a monopoly on the execution of heretics. The charge of heresy was a weapon that could fit many hands. A century and a half after heresy was made a state crime, the Vandals(a heretical Christian Germanic tribe), used the law to prosecute thousands of (orthodox) Catholics with penalties of torture, mutilation, slavery and banishment. The Vandals were overthrown; orthodoxy was restored; No toleration whatsoever was to be granted to heretics or schismatics. Heretics were not the only casualties. 4000 Roman soldiers were killed by heretical peasants in one campaign. Some lists of heretics and heresies are available. Thousands were burned at the stake by the Roman Catholic Inquisition, which lasted for nearly seven centuries. From time to time, heretics were burned at the stake by an enraged local populace, in a certain type of vigilante justice , without the official participation of the Church or State. Religious Wars slaughtered millions. During these wars, the charge of heresy was often leveled by one side against another as a sort of propaganda or rationalization for the undertaking of such wars a term used to undermind enemies for the upper hand
