Does this have an official name? Maybe the adjectival form of Hildegard would be better. (Hildegardian, Hildegardic...?)--Krejtalk 01:10, 7 May 2013 (UTC)

[edit] Immune system

According to this site: "Selon sainte Hildegarde, la luxure et les péchés sexuels génèrent des maladies du colon, des organes génitaux, et des sciatiques. L'homosexualité détruit l'immunité." Does "immunité" here refer to the immune system? I don't think Hildegard was aware it existed.--Кřěĵ (ṫåɬк) 01:59, 12 May 2013 (UTC)

I think they mean a general immunity, and not the actual immune system. Also, the quotes they cite don't mention either disease or homosexuality. You could try looking at the source, but the only one I found online is written in blackletter, is in latin, and is a series of photographs of a manuscript [1]--"Shut up, Brx." 02:19, 12 May 2013 (UTC)
If only I could read Latin. >_<--Кřěĵ (ṫåɬк) 16:59, 12 May 2013 (UTC)
