I don't understand why you think that the Templars on modern fiction are a "joke", mainly the ones in Assassin's Creed. (Yes, there are others.)

After all, based on what i know, their appearance is not so contradictory to their counterparts in real life. They, in resume, were "Christian" Knights who rode to eradicate Muslim faith to expand the domains of Christianity- and the Church's. Do you see the contradiction? I understand their goals, but their methods were rather questionable.

I said what i came to say, but remember that i'm not here to start a fight nor a war, nor am i here to support the "Assassins". I don't support Assassins, but i also do not support Crusaders either.

Okay, If You want an explanation, You'll get one. Knights Templar are often shown as bad guys simply in order to make a plot of a video-game or a movie interesting. You always need a villain, don't you? But in reality, if you read the chronicles of the contemporary named Ibn-Muqtadi (the name says everything), You should realize that those Knights were not as nearly radical as they are often presented in pop culture. Yes, they defended Christianity, yes, they were fighting muslims, but medieval times were discriminate times, and violence was rather normal. Assasins, on the other hand were for hire,and they were collaborating with Crusaders, as well as muslim lords. It is suspected that they poisoned Zangi/Zengi, and that they tried to kill Saladin at one point. So basically, if you want to compare the Knights, and the assasins, it's impossible, simply because the Knights believed into Christian ideal, and hasihishins or assasins believed only in money/gold.

Nella tentazione

Cercando la gloria

Il prezzo da pagare

E' la caduta dell'uomo

[translation:

In temptation,

seeking for glory,

the price to pay

is the fall of mankind]

Our country, in dealing with the other countries, may she always be right, but it is still our country, right or wrong.

I do not aim with my hand; he who aims with his hand has forgotten the face of his father.

I aim with my eye.

I do not shoot with my gun; he who shoots with his gun has forgotten the face of his father.

I shoot with my mind.

I do not kill with my gun; he who kills with his gun has forgotten the face of his father.

I kill with my heart.

For he did not know, that beyond the lake he called home,

There lied a deeper, and darker ocean green.

Where waves are both wilder and serene.

To its ports I've been,

To its ports I've been.
