| − | ''In brief'': The Crusades were a series of several military campaigns — usually sanctioned by the [[Papacy]] — that took place during the 11th through 13th centuries. Originally, they were Roman Catholic endeavors to capture the Holy Land from the Muslims, but some were directed against other Europeans, such as the Fourth Crusade against Constantinople, the Albigensian Crusade against the Cathars of southern France and the Northern Crusades.

| − | In modern times [[Christianity]] is a peaceful faith. Though other religions fundamentally use the Crusades as a basis for attacking the Christian faith. Ever since [[1998]], a man of evil called [[Ossama Bin Laden]] called Christians "Crusaders" in his speeches. Christianity is more a religion of love and [[brotherhood]] and has changed many times since the Crusades, but the Crusades will always be used as a [[political punchbag]] now due to this war.
