Katholikos Posted May 20, 2004 Share Posted May 20, 2004 What gave you a concern about it? Did you read the website? It is a very ancient Order in the Catholic Church. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I found a website that claims to be part of the Knights of Malta, yet it's clearly a homosexual website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katholikos Posted May 20, 2004 Share Posted May 20, 2004 [url="http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/07477a.htm"]http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/07477a.htm[/url] The organization originated in the 11th century and still uses the terminology of the age of knights. Dames are usually wives of knights. Write to the official Knights of Malta site and ask them if they are affiliated in any way with the homo website. I'd be shocked if the answer is 'yes.' Lots of organizations use the name of St. Francis but aren't Franciscan. Lots of churches who call themselves "catholic" are not. Check it out. Peace be with you and with all.
