TEMPLAR APOLOGY
The Times Online claims that the Vatican "is giving 'serious consideration' to apologising for the persecution that led to the suppression of the Knights Templar."
The article also claims that the order continued underground after the 1312 suppression, and that the "vast majority of Templars survived the persecution, including most of their leaders, along with much of their treasure and most importantly, their original values and traditions."
Is the Swiss Grand Lodge Alpina behind this? Invariably I think of Rene Guenon Lodge whenever I see the word "traditions" these days.
