"No, it didn’t used to be this way at all."
By Via Cernig, the Templars are finally getting back at the Pope:
The Association of the Sovereign Order of the Temple of Christ, whose members claim to be descended from the legendary crusaders, have filed a lawsuit against Benedict XVI calling for him to recognise the seizure of assets worth 100 billion euros (£79 billion).
They claim that when the order was dissolved by his predecessor Pope Clement V in 1307, more than 9,000 properties as well as countless pastures, mills and other commercial ventures belonging to the knights were appropriated by the church.
But their motive is not to reclaim damages only to restore the “good name” of the Knights Templar.
I can only hope that this will somehow lead to King Juan Carlos filing suit to reclaim his lost patrimony as King of Jerusalem. Or perhaps Heirs of Vercingetorix vs. J. Caesar?
