@TinaDaWolf @archeohistories Where and when did these rapes and murders of innocent ocurr? What are your sources? Templars while skilled killers but much less prone to raping than most men , Cristian or Muslim at the time.

@archeohistories fun fact the knights templar often touted as heroes used the name of God to rape and murder innocent women and children. Gee that was done an awful lot. Look at the entire history of the Christian religion. Or rather the history any and every religion for that matter.

Less than 25 years after the fall of Acre in May 1291 – the last, decisive defeat for the Crusader states – the Knights Templar fell too...
Founded around 1119, they began modestly as military escorts for the Christian pilgrims flocking to the newly conquered Holy Lands. It was commonly said that the order had only nine knights for its first nine years – a figurative truth that also nods to the way in which the order always seems to have had a mystical identity alongside its material one. Myths and fantasies accreted to it; arguably, they were its downfall.
The great Cistercian scholar Bernard of Clairvaux, an early supporter, acclaimed them as ‘a new sort of knighthood’, but they were a new sort of monasticism too, one which – counterintuitively – privileged violence over contemplation. ‘Whether one dies in bed or in war, the death of his saints will doubtlessly be precious in the sight of the Lord’, Bernard wrote. ‘However, the more precious is death in war.’
The Templars were also a new financial system. At their peak they had a network of some 870 houses and castles, and their vast reach made them the preferred choice for transferring large sums internationally. Henry III used the Crown Jewels as security for a loan. Baldwin II of Constantinople had something better: a relic of the True Cross.
In the end, it was all about money. The Templars were rich; Philip IV of France was in need. In the autumn of 1307 he pounced. The Templars were arrested and charged with blasphemy, idolatry and institutionalised sodomy. Was it true you were required to deny Christ three times and to spit on a crucifix, they were asked. Were you told, ‘If any brother of the Order wishes to lie with [you] carnally, [you] shall accept this because it is a duty’?
In 1307, Philip IV of France was feeling uneasy over the Templars’ immense power.

The Templars were rich, very rich indeed - and Philip IV of France was in need.
In the autumn of 1307 he pounced.... Philip IV had every Templar in France arrested. Philip handed them over to the Inquisition for interrogation, and confiscated all the Order’s property.
Many outlandish accusations were made against the Templars. This included worshipping the Devil, denying God, Christ and the Virgin Mary, spitting or urinating on the cross, and engaging in ritualistic homosexuality.
Those Templars that were arrested, were brutally tortured. They were tortured to the point where they were forced to confess to the abominations they were accused of.
Many of the knights recanted their confessions afterwards, saying how they were forced into making them.
On 11th May 1310, 54 Templars were burned at the stake in a field outside Paris. After this mass burning, many of those still alive in prison feared for their lives. They hastily announced that their confessions had been true after all, in the hope of escaping a fiery death...
Philip eventually pressured the French pope, Clement V, into closing the Order down in 1312. Two years later the Grand Master himself, Jacques de Molay, was burned alive in Paris. The accusations and confessions have surrounded the Templars with an aura of mystery, that has lasted ever since.
There were tales of them worshipping a curious head, carved of wood, bearded, covered with silver or gold leaf, or with four legs - this was thought to be the embalmed head of Christ.
Another theory is that the Templars were the custodians of the Holy Grail, which came to them by way of Mary Magdalene. This was reportedly hid away in Scotland.
Many also think the many treasures of the Knights Templar, was then transferred to Nova Scotia - namely Oak Island.

@JackPolakoff @DavidJHarrisJr And who later had him barred from his property?
English

@DavidJHarrisJr No one should be embarrassed by a president who calls a child rapist and sex trafficker "a terrific guy."

@IndianLuke @RightScopee Luke I'm your father, go to bed the adults are talking.

@RightScopee Marco Rubio is a hard NO for me.
Tucker Carlson has said he has no interest in running for political office.
I plan on voting for JD Vance as long as his running mate isn't Rubio.

@DavidHu01324758 @Provokethoughtz Perhaps your ok with California and New York always calling the shots, I'm not.

@Provokethoughtz The Electoral College is no longer appropriate. We are no longer a 13 state, tiny Republic where only property-owning white men vote.
English

@Provokethoughtz The only reason we have a nation is because of the Electoral college, none of the smaller colonies would have joined . Why would colonies like Delaware or Rhode Island join a group where they would always be at the mercy of a New York or Massachusetts? Try and think and .

@BarackObama Damn I voted for the others before I knew of this..just makes me feel much better on my choice.

Showing up 15 minutes early for an interview is basically trespassing.
Our receptionist notified me that a UX designer was waiting in the lobby at 9:45 a.m. for a 10:00 a.m. slot.
I walked out and asked why he was trying to steal company time before he was even on the official payroll.
He said he just wanted to account for traffic and make a solid first impression.
I told him that aggressive punctuality indicates a fundamental inability to accurately estimate project timelines.
He asked if he should go wait in his car until the exact minute.
I said no, the damage to his cultural fit score was already permanently done.
I made him sit facing the lobby wall until exactly 10:00 a.m. so he could think about his schedule.
Then I canceled the interview entirely because his anxious energy was too disruptive.

@its_Lexieroy She hit him with a SUVEE you twat. No he shouldn't be charged

@simonmaechling When the most powerful governments used "Science" to lie and abuse their citizens . And the Science still backs data that is politically driven, what do you expect? There was a time when science said that blacks were inferior to whites, smoking was good for you etc.
