Bédien Morange
Bédien Morange (born in Paris and died in 1703 in Lyon), was a French theologian.
He was a doctor of Sorbonne. In 1660, he became canon and cantor of the Église Saint-Nizier (Lyon), then general vicar of the diocese.[1] He devoted himself especially to refute the theory of Isaac de la Peyrère who hold that the Old Testament proves that there were men before Adam, and wrote a catechism for his discese entitled Summa universœ Theologiae Catéchistae. He was a member of the Compagnie du Saint-Sacrement.[2]
The epistle Instructions pour les confesseurs by Jesuit Gaspard Loarte was dedicated to him.[3]
