    Reason for The Crusades explained

    “War isn’t cruel. Killing is loving.” - Someone who isn’t Jesus The Crusaders (and the Catholic Church) have a history - a dark history - of treating their detractors cruelly in the name of God. I won’t praise them for it, nor will I emulate them.

    Listen to the pope. Kill those who are treating Catholics cruelly. Don’t be an ingrate @Wrangler. Be thankful to the pope.

    Reason for The Crusades explained

    Had I been there, the Catholics would have killed me. For being a Muslim? No. For being a believing Jewish monotheist.

    Reason for The Crusades explained

    Those who follow the teaching of Jesus aren’t “over spiritualized”. Thanks. You ought to think about what cruelty has to do with loving your enemies.

    Reason for The Crusades explained

    No. Jesus chastised Peter for using the sword. The swords - two of them for the entire group, to be precise - weren’t for self defense.

    Reason for The Crusades explained

    No. We owe our lives to God and Messiah.

    Reason for The Crusades explained

    That’s right. What is the response to cruelty taught by Jesus? Action, not inaction. And that action of a specific nature.

    Reason for The Crusades explained

    Replace “Romans” with “Muslims” … or replace “Jesus” with “Sherman”.
