This is so interesting!
How many myths about the Crusades do you believe?
In this episode of The Catholic Talk Show, Ryan Scheel, Fr. Rich Pagano, and Ryan DellaCrosse discuss with Historian Steve Weidenkopf myths about the crusades that too many people believe.
They debunk several misconceptions of this important part of history, including some of the following questions:
- Why every Catholic should be thankful for the Crusades
- What was the true cause of the Crusades?
- Were the Crusades unprovoked wars of aggression?
- How many Crusades were there?
- The truth behind the sacks of Jerusalem and Constantinople
- The unbelievable truth behind the “Children’s Crusade”?
- Were the Crusaders murderous thugs or valiant knights?
- Do The Crusades continue to be a cause of tension with Islam?
- and much more!

Comments are subject to deletion if they are not germane. I have no problem with a bit of colourful language, but blasphemy or depraved profanity will not be allowed. Attacks on the Catholic Faith will not be tolerated. Comments will be deleted that are republican (Yanks! Note the lower case 'r'!), attacks on the legitimacy of Pope Francis as the Vicar of Christ (I know he's a material heretic and a Protector of Perverts, and I definitely want him gone yesterday! However, he is Pope, and I pray for him every day.), the legitimacy of the House of Windsor or of the claims of the Elder Line of the House of France, or attacks on the legitimacy of any of the currently ruling Houses of Europe.
