IDOLATRY AND TEMPLARS

The part that our civilizations grant to beauty is as important as that one granted to life itself. All things are contributing to beauty in our world and a handsome human with some intelligence, will be privileged in life more than the others.
But the worship of beauty in our societies has never be a free act.Very early, human imagination has attached Beauty to Divinity. In societies where the lack of hygiene and medical care generated counterfeited human beings, to be born handsome and in good health was a divine sign when it was not quite supposed to be simply the demonstration of a divine grace.
The christian church understood the party to draw from such a belief and became one of the largest sponsors for arts of the western world. Using works of the artists enabled it to transmute reality into beauty. And such a transfiguration of reality in beauty was certainly not free at that time: it carried moral, social and political intentions and implications. And so, the painters of the Rebirth magnified the image of Christ who was represented as an aesthetic human ideal: handsome, tall, thin, fair and especially of western type. This image allowed the Christian church to assert its identity and to set its difference with the other worships, specially with the ones which were too close.
"By its pleasant beauty, ordered with truth and good, art must direct towards a transformation of the world… and beauty led to mystery": these words are always topics and go on scheduling our world. And thus, the transfigured representation of Christ exceeded the dogma for becoming the unic "reality", the only tolerated truth.
However, there was a christian religious order which did not want to kneel in front of this image of a Christ manufactured: they were the Knights of the Temple, more commonly named the Templars.
This christian Order was dissolved by order of the Pope in 1312 and the Great Master, Jacques de Molay together with Geoffroy de Charnay, Preceptor of Normandy, were burn at the stake in 1314 by the order of King Philip IV of France, officialy because these Knights adored a strange idol called "figura Baffometi" or Baphomet. This Baphomet is still portrayed at the Church of Templecombe (antic Templars’ temple in Somerset, England) where some templars found refuge. This painted human figure is far away for the representation of an handsome god: he has big eyes and eyelids, a gordy face, a large forehead and unexisting brows (see our previous report about Baphomet)
In reality, the French members of this Order have been destroyed for two reasons:
– in order King Philip IV of France stole their great treasure inherited from the Cruisades where they were engaged as courageous soldiers for Christ;
– because the Baphomet worship was too closed to the Mahometans of these times and proposed an image of Christ too different of the one
commended by the Christian Church and in complete contraction with it.
Therefore, the Knights Templars were most probably more closed to the truth regarding Christ than the roman prelates themselves. Indeed, they were the defensers of the "Saint Sepulchre" that-is-to say the Tomb of Christ since the period of Baudoin Ist, King of Jerusalem.
And so, who would speak better about the image of Christ than the Templars themselves who were the defenders of his remains? If those Knights have idolized such an image of Christ, it is because this image was real... far away from a false image of divine beauty. And here is how beauty associated to divine became a nightmare for all the members of a religious congregation till their extermination.
