What do you guys think of this video, and of the general
narrative recently put forth by multiple historians that the
Cathars never actually existed? I think that their non-existence
would be extremely disappointing, but I'm willing to keep an
open mind, because obviously I would like people to extend the
same courtesy to me and my own viewpoints.

Who were the Cathars?
[quote]In this video we discuss the famous medieval "heretics"
known as the Cathars, and the Albigensian crusade which tried to
wipe them out.[/quote]

The lens through which we see God – Elohim and Yahweh – a study
from Genesis 1 and 2 (Part I)
[quote]Genesis 1 and 2 describe the creation story from two
different lenses. In Genesis 1, God the creator is named Elohim,
a generic term implying power and judgement. In Genesis 2 we are
introduced to God’s name as a tetragrammaton that appears as
Lord in our English Bible or in Hebrew, Yahweh or Jehovah. This
short video presents a summary of a few Hebraic experts that
allow us a view of these two names and the characteristics
associated with each. Part II includes a discussion with Steve
Staten regarding the impact of these two names on how we
individually and the church community think about God and frame
our thoughts and
actions.[/quote]

For contrast with other Christians who have rejected Judaism
through time:
[quote]...
All visible matter, including the human body, was created or
crafted by this Rex Mundi; matter was therefore tainted with
sin. Under this view, humans were actually angels seduced by
Satan before a war in heaven against the army of Michael, after
which they would have been forced to spend an eternity trapped
in the evil God's material realm.[5] The Cathars taught that to
regain angelic status one had to renounce the material self
completely. Until one was prepared to do so, they would be stuck
in a cycle of reincarnation, condemned to live on the corrupt
Earth.[26]
...
Killing was abhorrent to the Cathars. Consequently, abstention
from all animal food (sometimes exempting fish) was enjoined of
the Perfecti. The Perfecti avoided eating anything considered to
be a by-product of sexual reproduction.

Who truly deserves a good God's favor, those that shed innocent
blood for their own benefit and cannot see all non-humans as
people, or those that are willing to shed innocent blood for
their own benefit and who refuse to see non-humans as people?
Not hard to see why Cathars and other Gnostics would see this
world as belonging to the devil...

Humans sacrificing non-humans to earn favour from the Devil is
not exclusively Judaic, as we were recently discussing:

Modern Western scientists still do it:

and are consistently rewarded for doing so with new empirical
discoveries:

Sacrificing non-humans really is an effective way of earning
favour from the Devil!
(It is equivalent to the intra-human behaviour (that we also
frequently observe) of one "non-white" ethnicity trampling on
another "non-white" ethnicity (the latter which "whites" have
designated as 'lower') to earn favour from "whites" (this really
works too!).)
It all falls under:
