The return of the Templars?
Just in time for the movie release of The Davinci Code . . . the return of the Knights Templar. The Templars were a military order of Christian knights founded in 1119 to protect pilgrims to the Holy Land. The order turned heretical and was disbanded in 1312 by the pope. Many legends grew up around them.
These new Templars (the Milita Templi Christi Pauperum Militum Ordo--a new order with a slightly different name) are religious knights, called to guard the faith of the apostles.
