They were basically the marines of Christendom. They did some good things, like creating one of the first banks. They would allow pilgrims to give them their money before they left on their journey and would give them a slip to be handed to one of the templars buildings in their final destination where they would be given most of what they deposited back.

The Templars became very rich, and many believe as a result of this, some what corrupt.

I assumed since you are so big into the whole god thing you would at least find researching other view on god would be interessting for an intelligent person. I guess not

Call it devine madness if you like, but "divine madness is why we have fanatical muslims attacking America and Europe. "Divine madness" is why so many of the extreme Batists are such a misery to be around.

You claim you aren't ignorant, but I honestly think you are probably one of the most ignorant people here. The fact you feel your so superior to everyone else is the main thing making me think that. Only the ignorant can have such a warped view of superiority.

Believe what you will. It doesn't effect me any. I do urge you to read something other than the bible though. There is much more to life than god and hope one day you will realize that.

I just fail to see how an intelligent person can be so sure of what he believes. Even most religious folk are tolerable of others views even if they think theirs are right. Not you though, you have the whole mythology figured out correctly. Good for you.
I dont have anything completely figured out, but everything I say information from channeled spirits, it gives me a sence of "spirtual pride" which overwhelms me at times. In reality noone is smarter or dumber or wiser when it comes down to it. People just choose not to look at the truth which keeps them locked into an illusion and constantly study it and believe this illusion is all there is to life. I'm just sure what I believe is true because I believe psycic channelings to be the real deal, and certain ones that I trust, I put 100% faith into. Sorry for offending ppl, I was trippin.
