Another bright moment of the Crusades

So Syme has been enlisted in "The Last Crusade". Now, as I've said before, Chesterton's poetry is shamefully unknown. One of his best, which I memorized about 3 years ago, and still can recite mostly from memory, is a story of the Crusades, specifically, the Battle of Lepanto. I present my own recitation of Chesterton's Lepanto.

Now, while this is a stunning poetic recounting of the events, it is also nice to have a bit more sober historical analysis as well. For that, I present a video by Real Crusades History.

For that matter, if you've had the displeasure of dealing with aggressive atheists who insist on nonsense like "religion poisons everything," I present Lt. Col. Tom Kratman's essay on the subject Where Was Secular Humanism at Lepanto?

We'll continue with chapters V and VI on Saturday. See you then, and I look forward to continued discussion of chapters III and IV.
