Montanist



Been reading a bit about Justinian I and Theodora I. (483-565), and came across this quote.
"he prosecuted the heretical Montanists"
I have read a bit out the Montanists, although right now I can't remember their specific heresy (something to do with the divinity of Christ, I think).


Anyway, my real question. Is a Montanist (the heretic) pronounced the same way that a fan of Montana would be?


I see my self as a strong Montan(a)ist, and would maybe go so far as to say that I promote Montan(a)ism. Poor Justinian, if he only knew that we'd still be promoting such things 1500 years later...

Sara,
Your site is my new favorite for sure! You read, you think, you joke, and you have pictures of those beatiful mini-relatives.
Thanks for adding sunshine to my day
