[/quote] Amazing! That's precisely where my evidence comes from! The charters of protection for Muslims under Spanish rule. A particularly juicy one comes from King hot stuff of Valencia and Aragon in the 13th century. It is always nice to compare that to the 7th century Pact of Umar which was the ideal dhimma in Islamic culture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And just so the record is straight, I'm not saying the [i]original[/i] reason for the fourth crusade wasn't justified - just the end result - the sacking of Constantinople - wasn't justified. So there. Take that to your harem and sit on it. THHHHHHHHHHHPPPPPPPPPPPP! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jesus Freak Posted May 9, 2005 Share Posted May 9, 2005 Crusades were not justified. Why fight after the first crusade? it was obviously not God's will that Christians have the Promised Land back yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One quick question: Does Texas have any naval bases and if so, which fleets are based there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
