Were they really sodomites? Or was it just baseless papal accusations?

Pope were the real sodomites all along.

They were officially anti-sex, anti-reproduction, because they believed the apocalypse was imminent and it was foolish to make children in such circumstances. They were a bit kooky in some other ways, but no more so than normal Catholics, really. I doubt they were any more into anal sex than others at the time.

they were literally good people

GUD BOYZ AND GRILLZ

DINDU NUFFIN WRONG

>When Bishop Fulk of Toulouse, a key leader of the anti-Cathar persecutions, excoriated the Languedoc Knights for not pursuing the heretics more diligently, he received the reply:

>We cannot. We have been reared in their midst. We have relatives among them and we see them living lives of perfection.[23]

FTFY.

Gay sex is non reproductive. There were tons of ancient Gnostic sex that practiced perverse sexual acts and abortion because it defied God (or le demiurge).

Freudian slip.

only the Perfecti didn´t had children, the laypeople (credenti) did

You do realize throwing around the accusation of sexual inmorality was so commonly used against "heretical" groups that most scholars agree such accusations are unfounded, and mere smear campaigns on part of the Church hierarchy, right?

We can't even be sure that any libertine Gnostic sects actually existed, thanks to the Church and its inability to record anything reliably, with its always resorting to ad homimens and baseless accusations and insults that.

It suffices that Jesus himself informs us that he hated the Nicolaitans - one such heretical, sexually deviant Gnostic sect - in Revelation. We can generalize based on this that he hated all Gnostic sects.

you mean John of Patmos

>>2150006
Revelation was written by someone who never even met Jesus...

John of Patmos is not the same individual as John the Apostle. The reference to the Nicolaitians means nothing: firstly, we know nothing concerning what they believed. Second, the mention of the Nicolaitians merely shows us that there was a power struggle between the various emerging proto-Christian groups, with each slandering each other and vying for supremacy. Nothing divinely-inspired or supernatural.

All scripture is inspired by God, but Revelation in particular was given by Jesus, hence "Revelation of Jesus Christ".
