These heresies were on a scale the Catholic Church had never seen before; the response was one of elimination for some (such as the Cathars), and acceptance and integration of others (such as the veneration of Francis of Assisi, the son of an urban merchant who renounced money).
Te jeresi bili su razmera koje katolička crkva nikada pre nije videla; za neke, odgovor je bio eliminacija (kao u slučaju katara), a prihvatanje i integracija za druge (kao u slučaju poštovanja Franje Asiškog, sina gradskog trgovca koji se odrekao novca).
