Weird and wacky history of Confirmation - complete list of links

During the last two years I wrote a series of ten posts about the history of Confirmation up to the dawn of the Reformation.  The posts now all contain at the end a link to the next post so that the reader can follow the whole story.  However the individual posts are scattered all over the blog, and so I have put all the links on one page so that it will be easier to find particular topics that may interest a reader.
