Does this mean the rest were "uncondemned"? I have a feeling we must agree to disagree on this one. The histories I've read indicate that the Crusaders slaughtered hundreds of Jews.

We have a right to defend ourselves against moslems just as much as the Jews do. You act like we were the enemy in the crusades. I find your attitude toward us disheartening.

As for whitewashing, you didn't read the article. It did mention the Jews, but you seem more concerned in your condemnation of us than seeing the truth. Out of 100,000 people put on trial it is a documented fact that 2,000 were put to death and it was for treason, not for being religious reasons. I thought the article was very balanced. Mrs. Carroll is an honest Catholic.

I'm through debating you because I am not going to continue to defend myself against ludicrous uniformed accusations.

I'm sorry you feel that way. But, you are correct. As far as the Jews were concerned, the Crusades were not beneficial.

Yes, I did.

Sorry you feel that we cannot disagree and that I must accept Mrs. Carroll's version of events.

I'm through debating you because I am not going to continue to defend myself against ludicrous uniformed accusations.

You are not defending yourself but these beliefs. Denegrating my position does not help yours.

Have a nice day.
