| Posted 11/4/2001 8:44 PM (GMT -6) | | Muh names not pia, but here. I found this on encarta. " a member of a Christian military order that was founded in Jerusalem in 1119 to protect pilgrims after the First Crusade. The order grew wealthy and influential from banking activities before being suppressed by the Pope in 1312." Also "one of the three major orders of medieval Christian knights active in Palestine during the Crusades."
hope that helped
God Bless

| Posted Yesterday 11:37 AM (GMT -6) | | I've heard of several books out there that suggest they had something to do with the gnostic gospels and were regarded as apparently holding the "secret identity of the messiah". They've often been compared to freemasons. I'm not 100% confident about this, so don't quote me. 
In His Grip,

| Posted Yesterday 3:22 PM (GMT -6) | | It’s hard to come up with cool names that make everybody happy. I try. I just happened to pick one that the Masons already thought of. Oh well. In order to avoid the creepy connotations, I’ll change the Templar rank. We’ll see who can guess where the new name from first.… ~ a

| Posted Yesterday 7:50 PM (GMT -6) | | ZOSIMA!! I like it. Have no idea what it means, because unfortunately the only dictionary I have is a medical one, so someone else will have to come up with that!
