Not to claim it.

They also sacked another christian city back in the 6th crusade, which was funny

Yeah

Byzantium

that

was uh

Nothing to do with Christianity

How can you have 1000s of battles and be defensive?

itt: catholics being buddy-buddy with the orthodox

They got Excommunicated

for it

As mercenary work for the King of Venice to get ships to go to the Mediteranean, which led to their excommunication

Not the Teutonic Knights.

Or Charles.

Orthodox is a meme

No.

Wew.

>"you guys are a bunch of schismatics but we're sorry for the crusade LOL"

Their priests wear funny hats

t. all catholics

I am not sorry for the Crusades

I don't murdering the Jews was 'defensive' seeing as though the Jews weren't riding them down

I'm not sorry. Fight me.

Yeah jews was a mistake

*know how

The rest were

Because Islam is superior. Christian just rolls over and says fuck me daddy.

mistakes.
