Carcassona.

Los cátaros compartían pacíficamente sus tierras y sus vidas con los habitantes católicos de la región. ¿Por qué, pues, fueron sometidos a una persecución tan furiosa? Básicamente, podría decirse que la causa era que los “herejes” cátaros eran mucho mejores cristianos que los propios católicos. Eran muy populares y también muy respetados por los habitantes de las poblaciones locales, que se convertían en multitudes simplemente por el ejemplo de la forma cátara de vida.
