......could be a cult started like the RF pins.  ;)


*FF loudly clears her throat*

All this talk of starting a cult is beginning to sound just a bit heathen for this thread.  I believe all this attention to the glamour of the rings is leading you astray from your vows of poverty.  In fact, it smacks of idolatry!

Whoa!  :o  An astute, yet somewhat misquided recipient of the word of the Latin Rule of the Temple! Very dangerous indeed!  ;) When the item in question venerates the Temple and the ideology it stands for, then it is a show of reverence! Absolutely allowed within the understandings of the Church (see iconic images crucified to the cross). Those that were abhorant to the visual display of Idolatry, fell within the grasps of both the Eastern Orthodox theology and the heretic infidel. The crusades were launched to help the one come back to the "light" side, and squelch the other's eastern expansion!  ;D

whew, gramercy for clearing that up Warrior Monk.  I was next afraid you'd be eating flesh four, five, six times a week and accepting feminine kisses

In all seriousness...why was the limitation on meat consumption in the rule?

"X. Let a repast of flesh three times a week suffice you, excepting at Christmas, or Faster, or the feast of the Blessed Mary, or of All Saints. . . . . On Sunday we think it clearly fitting and expedient that two messes of flesh should be served up to the knights and the chaplains. But let the rest, to wit, the esquires and retainers, remain contented with one, and be thankful therefor.

Did the word "flesh" refer to red meat only or poultry and fish as well?

Alchemy in the kitchens is a part of serving the Goddess...and I have interests in these areas  :)

Because the secular community over endulged itself in such consuptions, and they wanted to distance themselves from such obviously sinful practices (meat most of the time came from the hunt also, something they were prohibited from taking part in). It should be noted that the Master of the Temple could dictate more days of meat consumption, usually prior to battle.
I do not believe, if I remember correctly that it applied to fish and fowl.  ;D
