Non-Christians were known as commonly known as heretics, although most of the time they were closeted due to fear of the Catholic church, which massacred heretics during such times as the spanish inquisition. These Non Christians were also known by their actual religion, whether it be Pagan, Jewish or Muslim. The term "Atheist" did not originate till the 16th century, so they fell under the broader term "heretic."

A "heretic" could also be a Christian. The charge was laid against anyone who spoke against the Church of Rome, even if still Christian.

The first are our separated brothers in the Orthodox Church. There are some other Christians that fall into this category, full Christians who are separated from the Holy See by schism - Polish National Catholics, Old Catholics, and it looks as if the Society of St. Pius X is heading down that road. The other group are not in schism but separated by heresy, the protestants, some of which are Christians due to the fact that they have a valid baptism and believe in the Nicene Creed in its traditional interpretation. Other peoples who use the word "Christian" to describe themselves are using the word in a way it was never meant to be used. According to the Catholic Church anyone who, after receiving baptism, while remaining nominally a Christian, pertinaciously denies or doubts any of the truths that must be believed with divine and Catholic faith is considered a heretic.
