<BR>he had said, "You all are heretical," he would be biased. But he is
<BR>giving us the definition of heresy, and stating what other people felt
<BR>was heretical. To the Catholic Church, what went against the teachings
<BR>of the Church was Heretical. He is not saying that the teachings of the
<BR>Church were right or wrong, merely that what went against them in period
<BR>was considered by religious authorities (the ordained people in the
<BR>Church) in period to be Heretical. And if one bishop disagreed with
<BR>another, whoever went against the teachings of the Church was
<BR>heretical</BLOCKQUOTE>
