Hello, I'm am new to this sight. I would like to make a comment or two about Knights Templar and Freemasonry. I have read many books and articles on the topic of Templarism. It is my opinion that the Knights Templar and all of the associated organizations have morphed over time. What they started out as is not what they ended up being. Especially today. I don't believe for a moment that Freemasonry is connected with Lucifer. They are a good organization who allows people of all faiths to work together with bias or predisposed opinions. I don't believe in the concept of Lucifer. I am my own Lucifer.
The Knights served a purpose at their point in time. I believe they absolutely found out some very important information about Jesus Christ and the early Jewish Christians. The information was detrimental to the christian church which also morphed into a religion which seems now to have no true connection to Jesus himself. Through my Templar studies, I have come to the conclusion so far that Jesus was a man. A very special man who acheived total and complete awareness (using 100% of his brain) whereby he did reach God. I believe he was married and maybe even really did have children and that this makes him even more special to me. Imagine a real man, who learned all there is to learn and loved as much as you can love and who then willingly gave his life for real beliefs. He wanted change, the same changes most of us want now he tried to change then. I have come to believe that the Templars did find out important facts and that these facts if discussed are still to this day treated like a Heresy. I would much rather follow a real man (not a 1/2 god) who's trying to teach me to this day, to find God in myself and to love other people and to truly try and achieve goodness. Jesus' teachings had nothing to do with religion and everything to do with the acquisition of knowledge and using it to find God.
