Question for Christian Historians
Just read where some medieval theologians believed that burning a heretic purged him of his sins, that rather than punishing him and sending the heretic to hell, that burning would cleanse them. Does anyone know if this statement is correct, that a common idea of burning was for purification rather than punishment?
