Interesting. Two Ai's were what gave me my info, cos my questions were simple. There's no refutation there either, cos I never assumed anything about the origins of the Templars, only their summoning for the centuries long reconquista of Spain. Your AI misread me, which I do experience sometimes, and so I change my framing to be more direct.
So to be more direct: The Spanish pope didn't send his new Templars to protect other Christians while Spain itself was still being terrorized and still busy with the reconquista.
Imams are obsessed with the past, and Muslims invoke their Ottoman Empire glory days quite often. Their obsession is reflected in their actions, and what everyone saw first, was their actions
