I would like to point out that the heresy of Donatism gets stigmatized by Augustinians (who won the war) as "You have to be a 100% perfect person and if you're not you might as well just die" Really it's just "If you sold out the cause you don't get to be a leader in it"

I mean, the only problem with Donatism was the idea that if you kicked out a priest all their sacraments were retroactively invalid, too. So while i agree that it should've won out, they definitely would've needed to compromise on that.

It just sounds like a bookkeeping nightmare.
