EN
Heretic (gr. αἵρεσις – choice, purpose) movements are mentioned for the first time in the Catholics documents just a few centuries after Christ. They are related mostly to Manichaean movements which were created by Manes who believed that there are two elements in the world, Good and Evil who are still fighting with each other. Manichaeans rejected everything related to flesh and earth, but accepted only spiritual matters, because only those things were good in their opinion. It was a strong and very influential movement whose basic ideas became the fundamentals of many posterior philosophies, most of which were later deemed as heretic. An adjective ‘Manichaean’ became so negative over time that every new movement that wasn’t accepted by the Catholic Church was defined as ‘Manichean’.
