Arnoldist
Arnoldists were a Proto-Protestant Christian movement in the 12th century, named after Arnold of Brescia, an advocate of ecclesiastical reform who criticized the great wealth and possessions of the Roman Catholic Church, while preaching against infant baptism and the Eucharist.A Brief Sketch of the History of the Foreign Baptists By G. H. ORCHARD 1842 His disciples were also called "Publicans" or "Poplecans", a name probably deriving from Paulicians (The term "Publicani" would be generally used for any heretic, even a political traitor, through Europe). The Arnoldists were condemned as heretics by Pope Lucius III in the ''Ad abolendam'' during the Synod of Verona in 1184. Their tenets would later be addressed by Bonacursus of Milan, c. 1190, in his ''Manifestatio haeresis Catharorum'', which refuted Arnoldist apostolic poverty and the incapacity of sinful priests to administer the sacraments.

Pasagian
The Pasagians, also spelled Passagians or Pasagini, were a religious sect which appeared in Lombardy in the late 12th or early 13th century and possibly appearing much earlier in the East. The ''Summa contra haereticos'', ascribed to Praepositinus of Cremona, describes the Pasagians as retaining the Old Testament rules on circumcision, kosher foods, and the Jewish holiday, Jewish holy days; in other words, they observed the 613 Mitzvot, Law of Moses except in respect to sacrifices, and thus also were given the name Circumcisi. They considered Christ the highest created being and a demiurge (δημιουργός Greek for Creator) by whom all other creatures were brought into being, citing both the Old Testament, Old and New Testaments in support of their doctrine. They were accused of preaching a form of subordinationism, teaching that Christ was a created being and less than the God the Father, Father. As late as the eleventh century Cardinal Humbert of Silva Candida referred to a ...

Cathar
Catharism (; from the grc, καθαροί, katharoi, "the pure ones") was a Christian dualist or Gnostic movement between the 12th and 14th centuries which thrived in Southern Europe, particularly in northern Italy and southern France. Followers were described as Cathars and referred to themselves as Good Christians; in modern times, they are mainly remembered for a prolonged period of religious persecution by the Catholic Church, which did not recognize their unorthodox Christianity. Catharism emerged in Western Europe in the Languedoc region of southern France in the 11th century. Adherents were sometimes referred to as Albigensians, after the French city Albi where the movement first took hold. Catharism was initially taught by ascetic leaders who set few guidelines, leading some Catharist practices and beliefs to vary by region and over time. The movement was greatly influenced by the Bogomils of the First Bulgarian Empire, and may have originated in the Byzantine Empire, ...

It is among the world's oldest and largest international institutions, and has played a prominent role in the history and development of Western civilization.O'Collins, p. v (preface). The church consists of 24 ''sui iuris'' churches, including the Latin Church and 23 Eastern Catholic Churches, which comprise almost 3,500 dioceses and eparchies located around the world.

The administrative body of the Holy See, the Roman Curia, has its principal offices in Vatican City, a small enclave of the Italian city of Rome, of which the pope is head of state. The core beliefs of Catholicism are found in the Nicene Creed. The Catholic Church teaches that it is th ...

12th-century Roman Catholics
1 (one, unit, unity) is a number representing a single or the only entity. 1 is also a numerical digit and represents a single unit of counting or measurement. For example, a line segment of ''unit length'' is a line segment of length 1. In conventions of sign where zero is considered neither positive nor negative, 1 is the first and smallest positive integer. It is also sometimes considered the first of the infinite sequence of natural numbers, followed by  2, although by other definitions 1 is the second natural number, following  0. The fundamental mathematical property of 1 is to be a multiplicative identity, meaning that any number multiplied by 1 equals the same number. Most if not all properties of 1 can be deduced from this. In advanced mathematics, a multiplicative identity is often denoted 1, even if it is not a number. 1 is by convention not considered a prime number; this was not universally accepted until the mid-20th century. Additionally, 1 is the s ...
