That anyone cares about the Knights Templar, depite being a defunct organization for 700 years, is plain silly. There are so many *real* issues in our world that need to be addressed - things that actually matter - the color of an outfit or the symbols on it or the superstitions people have about them don't matter. It's 2014. Hunger, pollution, poverty, privacy - these things matter.

The Knights were slandered. All those rumours about them were concocted by the King of France because the Knights refused to give him a loan. His nation was broke from too many wars. The Knights were a rich organization, indeed. He got permission from the Pope to disband the Knights and confiscate their property. 702 years ago.

The only thing about the Knights that is still relevant, and always will be, is the age old truth that if if someone has money, there's always going to be someone else who wants it.
