| | Crusade - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The 13th century crusades never expressed such a popular fever, and after Acre fell for the last time in 1291, and after the extermination of the Occitan Cathars in the Albigensian Crusade, the crusading ideal became devalued by Papal justifications of political and territorial aggressions within Catholic Europe. |  | | The Crusades were in part an outlet for an intense religious piety which rose up in the late 11th century among the lay public as well as a response to the very real threat of an expanding Islamic empire. |  | | By processions, prayers, and preaching, the Church attempted to set another crusade on foot, and the Fourth Council of the Lateran (1215) formulated a plan for the recovery of the Holy Land. |

| | Albigensian Crusade - encyclopedia article about Albigensian Crusade. |
 | | The Albigensian Crusade (1209-1229) was a brutal 20-year military campaign initiated by the Roman Catholic Church to eliminate the religion practiced by the Cathars of Languedoc, which the Roman Catholic hierarchy considered heretical. |  | | The Ninth Crusade is commonly considered to be the last of the medieval Crusades against the Muslims in the Holy Land. |  | | The Children's Crusade is the name given to a variety of fictional and factual events in 1212 AD that combine some or all of these elements: visions by a boy, children marching to south Italy, an attempt to free the Holy Land, and children being sold into slavery. |

 | | France was perhaps the strongest state in Europe at the time, as Provence had mostly fallen under Parisian control after the Albigensian Crusade, and Toulouse was led by Louis IX& brother Alphonse, who joined him on his crusade in 1245. |  | | His crusade was a failure, but he was considered a saint by many, and his fame gave him an even greater authority in Europe than the Holy Roman Emperor. |  | | In 1244 the Khwarezmians retook Jerusalem, after the end of a 10-year truce following the Sixth Crusade. |

 | | Instigated by Pope Innocent III, the Albigensian Crusade, named after the inhabitants of the heretical village of Albi, was a campaign to rid southern France of Catharism, a manichean religion that rejected the Old Testament as well as the Catholic sacraments of baptism, marriage, and the Eucharist. |  | | While originally religious in nature, the Albigensian crusade quickly became a war of conquest by the northern French against the nobility of the south. |  | | The Albigensian Crusade was not only responsible for the expansion of the territory of the French King Philippe-Auguste, but it also laid the foundations for the Inquisition. |

 | | As I mentioned above, the Albigensians were not Sabbath-keepers, and in fact it is only rank ignorance of Albigensian doctrine, and rank ignorance of the deplorable history of the Albigensian Crusade, that would make any Sabbatarian Christian willing to consider that the Albigensians were his spiritual ancestors or were in any way associated with Sabbatarianism. |  | | He descended from a long line of Sabbath-keepers; the Cottrells were an Albigensian family or clan of southwestern France…The Cottrell family of England was descended from John Cottrell the Norman, one of the few survivors of the devastating Albigensian Crusades. |  | | Thiel likes to portray the Albigensian Crusade and the medieval inquisitions as attacks on the so-called One True Church that incidentally happened to strike at some other non-Catholic sects as well, but such is just not the record of history. |

 | | The Albigensian Crusade was, in effect, 'state/church' sanctioned genocide, and succeeded in wiping out most of the province, culminating (subsequent 'mop-up' operations notwithstanding...) in the massacre at Mont Segur. |  | | In the 13th Century, the Catholic Church waged a 'Crusade' against a competing Christian sect known as Cathars (ref: Albigensian heresy, Albigensian Crusade, Zoe Oldenbourg's books on the period and subject matter, etc.) in the south of France, primarily in the Langedoc region. |  | | I think we've had just about enough of the Jihad, crusade, holy war justifications. |

 | | He was assassinated, supposedly at Raymond's instigation, and in response to this act Innocent launched the Albigensian Crusade, a holy war in which Toulouse was ravaged and its inhabitants, Cathar and non-Cathar alike, were massacred.... |  | | The crusades to the Holy Land having resulted in, for the most part, failure and ruin, Innocent III set out to flex his military muscle closer to the homefront. |  | | It is exceedingly difficult to form any very precise idea of the Albigensian doctrines because present knowledge of them is derived from their opponents and from the very rare and uninformative Albigensian texts which have come down to us. |
