Name: Nobody's Perfect by Sects Ed
Duration: 37 min 9 s
Description: Welcome to Sects Ed, Episode 2: Nobody’s Perfect. In this episode, we cover the history and beliefs of the Cathars, a gnostic Christian sect who lived and worshiped in medieval France, and we try to give an overview of history of the Albigensian Crusade.

Join us for Our non-Christmas non-special, as Jon tells Sam about this female founded cult, channelling Jesus and other Astral beings to predict the end of the world, which definitely happened in the 1950s. We learn about the rival prophets, their beliefs and the ways people stay in groups after disappointments. 

Also, we find the easiest ways to name cults and cities, work out the worst place to time travel to, hear surprising messages from the beyond, and the Christmas song that scares Jon the most. 

More Mulch.
