During the #FrenchRevolution, these #Carmelite sisters refused to sign the Constitution Civile du Clerge that would render their Order submissive to the state. Kind of like the Little Sisters of the Poor.
I had the privilege of seeing a performance of Francis Poulenc’s opera Dialogues De Carmelites in NYC in the 80’s. Bottom line: don’t mess with nuns - you won’t win. Image

After the 4th & before the 18th century, the function of the European States was not only to control the worldly life of its subjects, but also to secure salvation in the other🌎, key to which was in Church’s possession!

It was State’s duty then to burn him alive/torture to death!
