By this time the bulk of the army had reached Antioch, just inside the southern Turkish border with Syria. This huge city had been a Roman settlement; to Christians it was significant as the place where saints Peter and Paul had lived and it was one of the five patriarchal seats of the Christian Church. The site was too big to surround properly but the crusaders did their best to squeeze the place into submission. Over the winter of 1097 conditions became extremely harsh. The stalemate was only ended when Bohemond persuaded a local Christian to betray one of the towers and on June 3rd, 1098 the crusaders broke into the city and captured it. Their victory was not complete, however, because the citadel, towering over the site, remained in Muslim hands, a problem compounded by the news that a large Muslim relief army was approaching from Mosul. Lack of food and the loss of most of their horses meant that morale was at rock bottom. Count Stephen of Blois, one of the most senior figures on the crusade, along with a few other men, had recently deserted, believing the expedition doomed. The crusaders had been inspired by the 'discovery' of a relic of the Holy Lance, the spear that had pierced Christ's side as he was on the cross. A vision told a cleric in Raymond of St Gilles' army where to dig and, sure enough, there the object was found. To the masses it acted as a vital inspiration. A couple of weeks later, on June 28th, 1098, the crusaders gathered their last few hundred horses together, drew themselves into their now familiar battle lines and charged the Muslim forces. With the aid of warrior saints in the sky, the crusaders triumphed and the citadel duly surrendered leaving them in full control of Antioch before the Muslim relief army arrived.

The First Crusade was called in November 1095 by Pope Urban II at the town of Clermont in central France. The pope made a proposal: 'Whoever for devotion alone, but not to gain honour or money, goes to Jerusalem to liberate the Church of God can substitute this journey for all penance.' This appeal was the combination of a number of contemporary trends along with the inspiration of Urban himself, who added particular innovations to the mix. For several decades Christians had been pushing back at Muslim lands on the edge of Europe, in the Iberian peninsula, for example, as well as in Sicily. In some instances the Church had become involved in these events through the offer of limited spiritual rewards for participants. Urban saw the campaign as a chance for knights to direct their energies towards what was seen as a spiritually meritorious act, namely the recovery of the holy city of Jerusalem from Islam (the Muslims had taken Jerusalem in 637). In return for this they would, in effect, be forgiven those sins they had confessed. This, in turn, would save them from the prospect of eternal damnation in the fires of Hell, a fate repeatedly emphasised by the Church as the consequence of a sinful life.

The city of Jerusalem, as the place where Christ lived, walked and died, held a central role. When the aim of liberating Jerusalem was coupled to lurid stories of the maltreatment of both the native Christians and western pilgrims, the desire for vengeance, along with the opportunity for spiritual advancement, formed a hugely potent combination.

A spark to this dry tinder came from another Christian force: the Byzantine Empire. Emperor Alexios, feared the advance of the Seljuk Turks towards his capital city of Constantinople. The Byzantines were Orthodox Christians.


In June 1097 the crusaders took the formidable walled city of Nicaea, 120 miles from Constantinople, The crusaders moved inland, heading across the Anatolian plain. A large Turkish army attacked the troops of Bohemond of Taranto near Dorylaeum. The crusaders were marching in separate contingents and this, plus the unfamiliar tactics of swift attacks by mounted horse archers, almost saw them defeated until the arrival of forces under Raymond of Toulouse and Godfrey of Bouillon saved the day. This hard-won victory proved an invaluable lesson for the Christians and, as the expedition went on, the military cohesion of the crusader army grew and grew, making them an ever more effective force.

Over the next few months the army, under Count Baldwin of Boulogne, crossed Asia Minor with some contingents taking the Cilician towns of Tarsus and Mamistra and others, heading via Cappadocia towards the eastern Christian lands of Edessa (biblical Rohais), where the largely Armenian population welcomed the crusaders. Local political conflict meant Baldwin was able to take power himself and thus, in 1098, the first so-called Crusader State, the County of Edessa, came into being.

FERNANDEZISBACK:
I will advise any sane person to stay clear of the northern part of Nigeria..looks like they have something going with their head..they can no longer think due to excess brainwashing from their religion...

Right at this moment Islam is a danger.. a danger to the world's security..a danger to itself...It may have been a forward looking ideology some 1200 years ago but it got stuck..

Only if todays Muslims are willing to revise their faith will the religion have a chance to survive...If not either they will destroy civilization or civilization will destroy them...
*Pukes*

This is my fear hence I opened the.thread I just did.

Only the Muslims can calm this situation because I have never seen Christians this angry...

They may retaliate if care is not take and a full blown religious crisis will start

TheScientist:
I met a lady about a month ago. She's about 25years old. She lives with her parents. Everything about her seems to be perfect except one thing... SHE DOESN'T ACCEPT THINGS FROM ME. She is currently unemployed. Each time i offer her money or gifts, she politely turn down the offer. About 2 weeks ago, i gave her 8k to make her hair. She collected the money, removed #500 and dropped the remaining #7500 on my table. She made the hair. I have no idea how she did it.
Yesterday, i offered her 30k to support her upcoming birthday but she rejected the offer. I'm worried because she buys gifts for me everyday(mostly fruits) and if i reject it, she gets angry. Please, does anyone understand what is going on here? Is she up to something? Got so many questions on my mind. How is she getting the money she uses to buy fruits for me? Has anyone had similar experience before? Please, how did it end?

SARSCoV2:
Who read novel should please summarize.

Olodo

I watched the disgueitng video of the brutal.murder of Deborah in Sokoto just as millions of other Christians didn around the world and I was filled with rage

To make things worse online you see carrles comments by Muslims supporting and defending this barbaric behaviour.

okay my dear Muslims do not confuse our adherence to the teachings of Christ as a sign of weakness.

Remember the Christian crusades!! This silent massacre of Nigerian Christians has gone on ling enough . The country is already divided enough as it is along tribal lines don't spark an end with religious war because this nation will not survive it.

Do not let fanatism make you fulfill Nostradamus prophecy that the world would end through a religious war Islam Vs Christianity... Do not fulfil this prophecy.

Religious war is the only thing that will take families apart and make them kill each other... because during a religious war no one cares if we are both from the same tribe so far you are a Muslim I will machete you down.

Only religious war will unite all the major and minority tribes in vengeance. Pls Muslims caution each other this is getting to a boiling point.

I was at the airport yesterday and wa shocked how a group of people who where fellow Christians near me were sounding...

Christians are becoming tired of waiting for God's vengeance. Don't push us to take up arms against Muslims it is getting to that point .

This video of Deborah's murder has triggered alot of rage in the Christian folk now is not the time to come online and sound cool .

Be you on Facebook, Twitter, nairaland or in your school, mosque at the market start speaking up and cautioning your fellow Muslims...

I have never seen Nigerian Christians this raged in fury before .

This was really a bad time for them to have done this because already people are suffering due to harsh economy, people are angry against Hausa / Fulani now to do this at this time was a collosal error .

Franky I am afraid for Muslims around Nigeria...

Because when it starts no one will care if you are my brother form Auchi in my state so far you ar emuslim you will be seen as an enemy and cut down

This is how dangerous it will be in the north southwest, southeast and southsouth

Now is not the time to be silent speak up and caution your peers not to inflame the situation

Does anyone care about this nonsense?

Seun:
You're missing the point. We are all nice and tolerant when we have not been offended. Putin is perfectly nice when he's not invading your country. It's how we behave when someone offends us that defines who we truly are.

I understand you bro,

But you are very fat.. so fat . Your heels have folds and all your shoes bend to the side cause your feet are age bread loaves with too much butter...

Your fingers are like Titus fishes .... Dude you have breasts now and should be wearing a bra

Men you are fat ... So fat ..wow fat

Seun:
"I am a very tolerant man. Unless you call me fat, then I will surely murder your entire family. But apart from that I'm a gentle soul. The loveliest, sweetest, gentlest fellow you ever met. As long as you don't criticize my weight.

Seun you are fat very fat, your cheeks a swollen and your chin is trippled with folds on your neck at the back of your head. You are shaped like an avacado that's over ripe. You are so fat , I mean so fat it's unbelievable.

There you go fatty, fatty, fatty fatty

SmartPolician:
The Bible never taught us to fight for God.
Only stupid people fight for their god. If God tells us to fight for Him, then He has lost every legitimate right to be called our Creator. This is no rocket science.

On the other hand, Islam is a religion no sane person should identify with because it encourages its faithfuls to go into jihad war for Allah. This is totally insane. I find it disgraceful that there are educated Muslims.

Shut up

Sageez:
Follow peace with all men without which...
Christians are peace loving people.

We don't fight for our God, we hold our peace and allow Him do the fighting
