celestial messages of God or, truth be told, the voice of God itself. Given the endorsement and asserted "endowments" of the Pope, the general population energetically sought after the campaigns. This is one of the best sins of the Roman Catholic Church all through history. In spite of the instability without bounds, for example, the sudden disappointments of the Crusades, the general population were driven by whatever the Pope directed.
