In this episode, I discuss the lack of support for the Knights Templar by the French King Philip V, and why it would have been better for them to be sent to another country, such as Malta or the Holy Land, where they could have faced off against the Ottomans.

00:00:00.000 Satsang with Mooji 0.99
00:00:30.000 I don't know.
00:01:00.000 Greetings, my esteemed subscribing tons.
00:01:08.860 Today I am checking in with a video log and I thought to briefly elaborate on something
00:01:14.440 I said in a Let's Play a few days back.
00:01:18.080 And first and foremost, when I make a Let's Play, it is much easier for me to do than to
00:01:24.140 do one of my regular videos where I talk about some relevant topic because then I have quite
00:01:32.440 a bit of pressure on me to perform or rather to present my views, my opinions in a good
00:01:38.580 way.
00:01:39.580 Whereas if I do a Let's Play, for example, or even a video log such as this, the pressure
00:01:44.880 is lessened, so it's easier for me to make, it's more natural for me to make.
00:01:50.820 And that is the reason why sometimes you see four Let's Plays in a row without any more solid
00:01:58.300 video.
00:01:59.300 It's because I can share some insights even when playing a game such as Assassin's Creed,
00:02:05.880 instead rather than a normal video.
00:02:12.480 So that is the reason.
00:02:13.980 And I also do try to make the Let's Plays as informative and insightful as possible.
00:02:20.840 So it's not just me playing a game, it's also me trying to share some thoughts.
00:02:25.420 And since I don't have a podcast of my own, I do try to use that time to talk about things
00:02:32.420 that I just want to mention briefly without having to make a separate video on it.
00:02:37.620 So that is the reason I do like making Let's Plays, in addition to, of course, gaming a bit
00:02:42.740 always nice.
00:02:44.000 So as you've seen, I've done some Assassin's Creed videos as of late, love those games, they
00:02:50.060 are a bit cucked in certain ways, but the sheer aesthetics and beauty of them makes
00:02:56.620 it up for it.
00:02:59.500 So anyway, in regards to the Templars, what should the French King Philip have done?
00:03:09.820 Either two things, either he should have sent them somewhere into the Mediterranean such as 0.69
00:03:17.820 the case was with the Hospitallers.
00:03:19.860 They got Malta, successfully defended it against the Ottomans in the Great Siege of Malta, an 0.53
00:03:25.060 inspiring episode.
00:03:26.060 I might make a separate video on that at some stage, but basically the Hospitaller order
00:03:31.920 also originated in the Holy Land, Outremer, as a Crusader order.
00:03:37.720 They managed to survive longer than Templars and ended up in Malta, and as I said, successfully 0.96
00:03:42.700 defended it against the Ottomans.
00:03:45.220 So for the Templars, I think everyone can agree that it wasn't an option to have them
00:03:51.220 still in Europe without a state.
00:03:54.060 You can't have powerful entities within countries.
00:03:57.220 Everyone needs their own country, regardless of religion. 0.98
00:04:01.300 This includes the most heroic of Templars as well.
00:04:04.280 They needed a country of their own, because if they were to stay in France, they would have 0.81
00:04:07.980 become a problem for the French King, because he wants the ultimate power in his kingdom. 0.93
00:04:13.220 So he could either have done what he did, basically kill them off or defeat them.
00:04:20.960 Then what happened to them, some speculate that they fled to Scotland, I don't know.
00:04:26.060 But it was either that, or he could have sent them, with the Pope's permission, to some place
00:04:32.500 in the Mediterranean to take up the fight against the Ottomans.
00:04:36.540 So thank you for watching this little video log.
00:04:38.880 I might add in some additional scenes to this, because I need to train my video log game.
00:04:44.260 And if not, then I thank you for watching XXO.
00:04:47.260 Boom.
00:05:14.260 Greetings.
00:05:15.260 I thought about one last sequence to end this video log.
00:05:21.000 And this is actually the place you have seen this before, because when I made the Quest for Atlantis
00:05:28.240 video, I was here with my good friend William, and we took some underwater shots etc from this
00:05:35.940 place.
00:05:36.940 This is actually a former quarry that is now filled up with water, and we were driving along,
00:05:42.940 and just stumbled upon this place, so I just thought to add it into the sequence.
00:05:48.940 And you can hear all the geese there, excited in the background to be in my video that I want to show off there.
00:05:57.940 So yeah, if you express some admiration for the geese in the comments section, I'm sure they will be absolutely delighted,
00:06:04.940 and I will tell them the next time I'm here, if they're here, that you all are admiring their greatness.
00:06:11.940 So yeah, anyway, rocking the Exploration Hoodie, of course, always.
00:06:16.940 Perfect autumn garment.
00:06:18.940 And yeah, just thought to do that, and again, thank you for watching XXO.
00:06:24.940 Boom.
00:06:27.940 Boom.
00:06:30.940 Boom.
00:06:32.940 Boom.
