Since you supposedly know oh-so-much about the Crusades, I'll just leave
this here. I'm sure you'll see it and think "I done goofed," or you'll spout some more crap about the Templar order and we'll know for certain you're either a fanboy or troll, though probably just a fanboy.
I know of Saladin and how honorable he was. And yes I f***ed up when I said everyone was intolerant because he was not but besides him. There wasn't really too many others like him.

I can't recall major massacres for which Muslim armies were responsible after the capture of Jewish or Christian cities, and wasn't it common for Muslim leaders to permit pilgrims of other religions into their cities? I know the Christians weren't nearly as lenient, and they often destroyed or defiled Muslim & Jewish places of worship.
You are right about the christian crusaders slaughtering all sorts of people inside of Jerusalem but we don't know if they all felt so thrilled about it as others did. I may be wrong about this for none of us was here on the day this happened and thus we cannot speak for anyone, but I think, I THINK!, that many men who fought for the capture of Jerusalem would have been as disgusted about this situation as we are today. I may be wrong though. And, as well, the Templars were formed about ten years, I think, after the capture of Jerusalem.

no
as much as I wish I could live up to the standards of the Knights Templar I am not a templar reborn. But Fate has strange ways does it not?
1) Found a religious order
2) Invade the Holy Land/Fight other religions
3) ???
4) Profit
Worry not, as you can see from my clever plan, it is still entirely possible for you to live up to the standards of the Templar Knights.
Like I've said above the Templars were formed after jerusalem. And you are somewhat correct about the "???" Becuase, supposedly, a good deal of the Templars went missing for the first several years barely ever to be seen. But their profit was not intentional. Their order consisted of the rules "Poverty, Chastity, and Obedience." Thus they were not able to hold the money as their own possesions but, rather, as the groups possesion and they would use this money for supplies and such.
