It was once taught that the Sun, Moon, and all planets circled the Earth. If you thought otherwise, it was heresy, simply because the majority (ie. the Catholic Church) said one thing and you thought another.
So if someone today had a thought that ran counter to accepted teaching and was labeled a heretic, it may be simply because heresy is what the majority says it is.
