Here's a story that I think has been whitewashed. Bernard prehaced Crusades--and encouraged crusaders to pillage Jewish ghettos on the way to the Holy Land to kill Muslims."Champion of Reconciliation?" I think Bernard is one of the great villains of church history (like Eusebius, Constantantine, Innocent III) who has been admired when he should have been condemned and repudiated.
