Interwiev on Larry King Live, aired on March 24th, 1999. Divac: “… I am worried about all innocent people either from the Serbian side or Albanian side and from American, European, whoever is there right now it’s just a terrible situation …” Humanitarian work Divac is a proactive humanitarian worker, focusing on aid to children worldwide and refugees in his home country. Along with six Serbian basketball teammates, Divac established the charity called Group Seven, later renamed to “Divac’s Children Foundation”, and works closely with International Orthodox Christians Charities (IOCC), helping them to raise around US$500000 for humanitarian assistance in Serbia since 1997. Divac’s own foundation, presided by his wife Snezana, provided over $2500000 in humanitarian assistance through 1998–2007. In late 2007 Divac has founded a humanitarian organization, “You Can Do It too” (Serbian: Mozes i ti), bent on assisting the refugees in Serbia. Serbia has around 500000 refugees from the 1990s Yugoslav wars, making it the country with the largest refugee problem in Europe. Around 7800 of those people still live in collective centers under poor conditions, so the organization has vouched itself to buy abandoned countryside houses, in an attempt to finally solve their accommodation problem. To learn more go to: divac.org.yu On 21-23 September 2007, Divac organized an official farewell from active basketball career in his hometown Prijepolje and Belgrade, simultaneously promoting the “You Can Do It Too” campaign. The spectacle culminated in gathering of Divac and his worldwide friends in front of 10000 people outside the National Assembly building. (Source: Wikipedia en.wikipedia.org

Stefan Nemanja was the king who persecuted and expelled them from Serbia. From there they run to Bosnia, and were known as Patareni. The Hungarians undertook many crusades against the heretics in Bosnia, but towards the close of the 15th century, the conquest of Bosnia by the Turks put an end to their persecution. A large number of the Bosnian Bogumils, and especially the nobles, embraced Islam. There is more to this issue, but You Tube is not a good place for comprehensive History discussions.
From Bulgaria Bogumils spread westwards into Serbia, Bosnia, Croatia, Italy and France, and suffered heavy persecution in all these countries. They were brought into connection with the Bosnian Church, also considered heretical by the Pope and Byzantines, but was not actually Bogumil in nature.
To Biverix: Bogumils were Gnostic dualistic sect originated in Bulgaria abt 927-970CE They taught that God had two sons, the elder Satanail and the younger Michael. Satanail rebelled against the father and became the evil spirit. After his fall he created the lower heavens and the earth and tried in vain to create man; in the end he had to appeal to God for the Spirit. After creation Adam was allowed to till the ground on condition that he sold himself and his posterity to the owner of the earth
@historiands they were called bogumils or bogomils. try more research on that. Bogumili (srb.) means “those dear to god”. They were considered heretics by both catholics and the orthodox. The last of them perished during the middle ages though, largely exterminated by a certain Serbian king of the Nemanjic dynasty whose name I just can’t remember, sorry. I’d be glad if this was any help, cheers.
