Thank you for sharing. There’s a catholic church near where I live and I always walk by her statue on my morning walk and read the inscription nearly everyday. After a while I got curious and found this video. Thank you for this presentation. She sounds like a true mystic and believer in Christ. I think it’s very easy for us to criticize her perceived flaws regarding the crusades. That’s called presentism - we think we know more or would have done better in her place during that time in history. Look around, we absolutely 100% would not have.
This was a very enlightening lecture which I found as I study the late Middle Ages. It really gave life to this Doctor of the Church. My only criticism is not related to the subject material per say, but the use of the term "anti-Judaism" by the speaker. The Christian Church was not "anti-Judaism,' which implies only a theological disagreement. Indeed, the Inquisition, particularly later in Spain, was not content to argue with "Judaism." Its aim was to wipe out Jews. Even sincere converts from the Jewish people to Catholicism were targeted and murdered. Jews were expelled from England, France, Spain, and other places. These were not anti-Judaism, they were antisemitic, whose universal meaning is prejuidice against Jewish people.
Thank God I’m Orthodox. We don’t have nominalist left-wing infiltrators like yourself in our church. People like you have completely ruined the Latin church with your vapid revolutionary nonsense. This is why healthy, radical traditionalism is rapidly spreading among your young people. So when they become the majority, which is inevitable (they actually hunger for the Word, not worldly politics) don’t sit back wondering where it all went wrong or how it happened. When you find yourself wondering, “who radicalised these people?”, don’t strain yourself too hard; just take a good cold, hard look in the mirror.
I don’t think Catherine ever mentioned homosexuals and lesbians. I was involved in translating her letters from the 14th century Italian. This is your interpretation.

I’m a Saint!
“Europe gets 5 patrons.” Is that enough?
Catherine of Siena condemned that "which is against nature" - Homosexuals and Lesbians - and she spoke of the stench and misery in which they dwell.
nah
That’s why we must be born again. John 3:3
And who was she to judge?...Jesus didn't judge gay and lebsians...why should she...??? Sounds very unchristlike to me...
