What did the Christians use to justify them fighting in the Crusades?

∙ 10y ago
The three main reasons given for the Crusades were:
- Rescuing fellow Christians from invasion and persecution
- Conquering or retaking lands in the possession of Muslims
- Fulfilling personal vows to go on a crusade
In reality the majority crusaders went because they were told to go. Many of those in charge saw an opportunity to increase trade (become rich) by invading the Near East. The average crusader was not into the "big picture" or even where they were going. Some did not know if they should pack a lunch for the adventure or if they could come home for meals.

∙ 15y agoThe Bible was written before the Crusades, and so it cannot 'justify' them.
What "justifies" the Crusades is people who wished to find a justification for their actions.
