Stately buildings were destroyed; and the prin- cipal cathedrals of Carthage were used for the brutal purposes of the plunderers. When any castle held out against them, they brought numbers of captive Christians and slew them, leaving their bodies to putrefy under the walls, thus compelling the besieged to surrender on account of the offensive stench. All this misery and bloodshed was brought upon the human race by a contention over a question fool- ish and trivial in itself, and a question whi...ch is be- yond the ability of man to determine. Has not the tendency of modern thought been in advance of this? And has not this advancement come from investigation, discussion, and reason, ap- plied to every subject? But to return to the history of the times. There were many Catholic Christians in France, comprising a sect called Waldenses, who denounced many of the dogmas of the Church. Their principal accusation was that the Church of Rome claimed to be the only infallible church of Christ upon the earth, and that the Pope, as the vicegerent of Christ, was the head of the Church ; that in the doctrine of transubstantia- tion it was absurd to claim that the bread and wine CHRISTIANS PERSECUTE CHRISTIANS.
