The Crusades were expeditions undertaken, in fulfilment of a solemn vow, to deliver the Holy Places from Mohammedan tyranny.

The idea of the crusade corresponds to a political conception which was realized in Christendom only from the eleventh to the fifteenth century; this supposes a union of all peoples and sovereigns under the direction of the popes. All crusades were announced by preaching. After pronouncing a solemn vow, each warrior received a cross from the hands of the pope or his legates, and was thenceforth considered a soldier of the Church. Crusaders were also granted indulgences and temporal privileges, such as exemption from civil jurisdiction, inviolability of persons or lands, etc.

lowly, he said "I have lost my horse. I have looked for it everywhere, but cannot seem to find it". The fakir told him to look behind a clump of trees. Chandbhai was pleasently surprised to find his horse grazing peacefully behind those trees. He thanked the fakir and asked his name. The fakir said "some people call me Sai Baba." Sai Baba then invited Chandbhai to have a smoke with him. He got the pipe ready, but there was no fire to light it with. Sai Baba thrust a pair of tongs into the ground and brought out a burning coal. Chandbhai was wonderstruck. He thought "this is no ordinary person" and invited Baba to come to his house and be his guest for a few days.

Oh, and when their creationists aren't busy mischaracterizing the second law of thermodynamics or the aquatic ape theory they're advancing the field of science by finding dinosaurs and inventing the field of Baraminology.

The existence of Santa Claus continues to be a hotly debated topic around the world. Most skeptics point to the laws of physics or the logistically impossible task of delivering billions of Christmas presents to the world's little boys and girls on a single night in December from his home in the North Pole (which appears to be located close enough to Plattsburgh, New York to affect local television reception) as proof of a global conspiracy. However, as Apple co-founder Steve Jobs continues to prove to the non-believers, anything is possible -- albeit with the assistance of Apple technology. Then again, maybe it's more than merely a coincidence that many people believe that Satan er.. Santa (as well as Apple Computer) to be aligned with very dark forces.. and I'm not referring to the CIA.

October 31st is celebrated by some as Reformation Day. On that day in 1517 Martin Luther posted 95 Theses on the door of the church of Wittenberg, intending to reform the hopelessly corrupt Catholic Church. His intention was never to create a new religion, but his actions sparked the Protestant Reformation that shattered Christianity into fragments. Even the church that bears his name still can't keep it together.

The kind of fringe Christianity displayed at The Cutting Edge can be pretty scary. Paranoid diatribes against Clintons, Freemasons, Catholics, and pretty much the rest of organized Christianity abound. Even more disturbing, though, are the accompanying images by artist Gerry Warner. His work is fascinating in its complexity and imagery even when employed on less inflammatory subject matter.

In a 1631 edition of the King James Bible, in Exodus 20:14, a very small word was forgotten by the printers: "not". This omission changed the 7th commandment to say "Thou shalt commit adultery" and caused this version to become known as "The Wicked Bible". Church officials were not amused, and the printers were fined 300 pounds (a year's wages in those days). Most of the copies were recalled immediately and as few as ten still exist.

Christians have been putting religious messages on bricks at the King County (Redmond, WA) Public Library. In response to messages like "Christ Died For Our Sins. He Rose Again. 1 Cor 15:3-4.", the author bought his own bricks: "God Kills Babies. Read 1 Samuel 15:3. And God Is Love??". Inspired by this, a local has contributed not only a photo gallery but has bought his own bricks, including "Socialize Microsoft" and "Worship a Daemon: Run FreeBSD". And, no, it's not too late to get in on the action.

The religious community of the Shakers (no, not the Quakers), commendable in many ways, and creators of practical and influential (i.e. oft-ripped-off) objects (and a few good tunes -- also used by others) was reduced in number largely by doctrine. One Shaker down, six to go. Makes you wonder about contemporary utopian communities that haven't lasted so long, some of which should watch out for dysentery during the July 4 week.

I'm still unsure if this guy is serious (or not), but I am sure it has more "amen" per word than anything else I've seen. Apparently, anyone who's not part of his CHRISTIAN denomination (the Duck River Association of Baptist Churches) is going to HELL, including those "WAFER-GOD" worshiping Catholics. Examples of just how few of us understand (his) God can be found on the "Messages from the Damned" page.His FAQ is fascinating, telling us that asking him why he believes the King James translation of the bible is the real text is a "joke question" and that his Jesus-promised girlfriend is a fast-food waitress in Wisconsin, who has an unlisted number and who he can't visit because he has no car - but we should give her his email address.

They also offer Ph.D.s in such fields as Drug & Alcohol Counseling, Astral Projection, UFOlogy, and Exorcisms, all based on your life experiences.
