for the first one...In thoes days a paster/prest was considerd higher than any government offical and for the most part was government, what he would say was law. and he was never wrong, it influnced for the most part all of Europe. the Pope especaly was directly under the king in the cathlic religion....which is why today the cathlic church has so many politics. I would give you a websight with more information, but I just got this from my own knowlage.

@aconley2468 for question #2, The mixed life is when the Christian or Catholic components is intertwined with

allowed a mixed life.
