The Cathars:  Cathar Beliefs:  Roman Catholic Propaganda:  Incest

There is no evidence that Cathars were given to practice incest. 
The accusation probably stems from the observation that the Cathars regarded all procreative sex as equally bad.  So, Catholic theologians reasoned, Cathars must regard sex between man and wife as being as sinful as sex between man and mother (true) and they they must have practiced the later (false).
