Ah, sorry. I meant someone executed by the church for it.

Do you have a wikipedia article? I’d like to read it.
Checked wikipedia. I found the following crimes that the church executed people for:
Being a (crypto) Jew, criticizing the papacy, being an atheist, saying Jesus was from Kongo, witchcraft.
Anyone else got some crimes to add? I don’t count the local authorities executing someone for whatever a holy book says, but the Catholic/protestant/orthodox church did
Summary of Wikipedia: Kimpa Vita, burned as a heretic. Religious tenets among others: Jesus, Mary and Saint Francis were born in Kongo.
The real reason for being executed was probably because she was a threat to people in power, not that she claimed something silly.
