At a time of religious unrest and sharp ecclesiastical control, a young Flemish priest closely follows the rise and fall of Quietism, a mystical movement centered around the Spanish thinker Miguel Molinos. His name would go down in history as that of an alleged heretic &#8211; perhaps even the last to be condemned as a &#8220;heresiarch&#8221; by the Church.  <\/p>\n<p>In this audio play, <em>Miguel Molinos, the Last Heretic<\/em>, unfolds the story of an intriguing and ambiguous figure. Was Molinos a deceiver who seduced devout believers with dangerous ideas, or an original mystic who went too far for his time? The answer remains open.    <\/p>\n<p>What for some was a path to soul peace, the Inquisition saw as a threat to the faith. Between devotion and suspicion, inspiration and condemnation, this audio play explores a dark page in the history of Christian mysticism. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\n<div> <\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-audio\"><audio controls src=\"https:\/\/dirkvanbabylon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Luisterspelen_25_11_1994_Molinos_20240530210258_hires.mp3\"><\/audio><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><em>The author of this radio play has made every effort to comply with the usage rights of this work.
