More on the Order of Malta

Hmm… murkier and murkier. I wonder whether the head teacher will still think it's a good idea to support the Order Of Malta when he knows that their proud history includes several hundreds of years of fighting the evils of Islam? Wonder what muslim parents would make of it all?

Haven't handed out the leaflets yet. Thought it was only fair to let the head know our views first and give him the opportunity to recant, so to speak. He was somewhat taken aback to get our letter this morning. Didn't see it coming, apparently. He's a lovely bloke, and a terrific head teacher — my only complaint about the school concerns all this religious nonsense — but I'm seriously beginning to wonder about his judgement.

Comments:
YOU MUST NOT BE THE BEST HISTORIAN OF ALL TIME, AS IF YOU WHERE YOU WOULD HAVE RESEARCHED YOUR TOPIC AND REALISED THAT THE ORDER OF MALTA AT NO STAGE PERSICUTED ANY RACE OR CREED OF PEOPLE AS THE ORDER HAS NEVER POSSESED THE MEANS... ON THEY CONTARY TO YOUR ACCUSATION, THE KNIGHTS OF MALTA DID INFACT HAVE MANY ALTERCATIONS WITH THE MUSLIMS, THE OREDER AT THAT TIME PROVIDED A HOSPITAL SERVISE FOR ALL INJURED, DISREGARDING RACE OR CAUSE!

I WOULD HOPE THAT YOU WILL NOW GO AND RESEARCH YOUR TOPIC AND POST AN APPOLIGY TO THE GOOD CHARTIBLE ORGANISATION THE IS THE ORDER OF MALTA!!!

AS A MEMBER I AM DEEPY HURT BY YOUR IGNORANCE AND I HOPE YOU WILL AMMEND YOU WAYS!

MANY THANKS

Oooh, I wondered when I would start to attract the attention of scary mad people — anonymous, I mean, not you, Karl Q. As for your comment, I make no claim to be the best historian of all time, and I apologise. I should of course, have said that it is the Knights of Malta who have a proud history of fighting the evils of Islam. I found out about that, however, by linking through to the Knights of Malta website, directly from the Order of Malta website, so I think the association and any confusion in my mind is therefore at the very least partially the responsibility of the Order of Malta. If they don't want to be associated with the Knights' crusading past, then they shouldn't be so keen to direct passing internet surfers to the Knights's website.
And on the subject of crusading, hasn't there been an almighty fuss lately concerning your holy father's efforts to fan the flames of the ancient conflict?
