 Babylonian captivity - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Babylonian Captivity of the Papacy, or of the Church, which refers to the Papacy's sojourn in Avignon, France between 1309 and 1378, when the Popes were seen by some as "captives" of the French Kings.

 Martin Luther: The Babylonian Captivity, 1520 first edition
Prelude on the Babylonian Captivity of the Church.
Captivity is primarily an attack on the Roman Church’s sacramental system, the practices and teachings that gave the Church its spiritual and temporal authority.
The central argument of the Babylonian Captivity was that the essence of a true sacrament is that of a divine promise, and that each Christian had to accept this promise for himself.

 Encyclopedia: The Babylonian Captivity of the Papacy
Thus began the seventy year period known as the “Babylonian Captivity of the Church” (1309-1378), during which the Popes increasingly lost touch with their spiritual goals, lost their spiritual and temporal prestige, and found the very foundations of their hierocratic vision for Christian society crumbling beneath their feet.
One of the most important struggles to take place during the Babylonian Captivity was that between Pope John XXII and the Emperior Lewis of Bavaria.
In the first quarter of the fourteenth century, the conflict between these two men over the legitimacy of Lewis’s imperial title came together with an ongoing controversy between the “Spiritual Franciscans” and the Pope, and the results were nothing less than explosive.

 A BABYLONIAN CAPTIVITY, by Professor Revilo P. Oliver
The term "Babylonian Captivity" was used metaphorically by Petrarch to describe the removal of the Papal See from Rome to Avignon, which he especially deplored, because while it removed a focus of festering corruption, it also impoverished the inhabitants of the "Eternal City," for which Petrarch felt a cultural and scholarly patriotism.
This is called the "Babylonian Captivity" and deplored by sentimental Aryans who do not perceive what a great (God-sent?) opportunity it gave the godly folk to infiltrate and exploit the civilized world by operating from what was long one of its major commercial centers, comparable to New York city today.
As we now know from his inscriptions, Sargon of Assyria (5) in 721 B.C., endeavoring to keep peace in the land called Israel, transported several thousand members of the leading Samaritan (Israelite) families to Medea and other parts of his dominions, instead of massacring them, as would have been more in keeping with Assyrian policy.
