because thay had a hard life and saw it as an opportunity.
Religion, probably was the biggest reason of all, because during the first crusade the Holy War was started. The Holy War was between the Muslims and the Christians. The purpose of the Holy War was to regain the practice of the Christian in Jerusalem where the Muslims had taken over. So peasants probably join in the fight to protect their faith.
Many people found Jesus' ideas attractive because they emphasized love, compassion, forgiveness, and inclusivity. His teachings offered hope, purpose, and a sense of belonging to those who were marginalized or oppressed, resonating with their deep spiritual needs. Jesus' message of redemption and salvation appealed to those seeking meaning and truth in a troubled world.
The Crusades were a series of religious wars fought between Christians and Muslims over control of holy lands in the Middle East. Both sides believed they had a divine right to these lands, leading to conflicts fueled by religious fervor, political ambition, and territorial expansion. The First Crusade was launched in 1096 by European Christians seeking to reclaim Jerusalem, which was under Muslim rule at the time.
Royas are treated better because it is the will of God that they are to be anointed as King, Queen, and so their kin, and appointees are in line with the will of God. One must allso remember that all sins conducted under the authority of King or for that matter an appointed leader, does not fall on the person commiting it but on the leader, the person in authority. The simple reason why royalty is treated differently from the working class or peasants is wealth and greed. The various leaders and their advisors (Royalty) created Religious theology and their attendant Gods to reflect their own image and likeness. These rulers, through their clever advisors, created religions that targeted the fears of the people at the particular time. These advisors were similar to the marketing consultants and advertising specialists of today. The wealthy people found creative ways of keep the working-class people (peasants/slaves) obedient to their whim and fancy. The working class people were threatened with eternal damnation for disobedience to the divine laws and instructions of an invisible authority called God. This God has created you in his image and likeness to obey and serve him with blind faith. This God choose special servants to be his messengers to his humble and obedient subjects. This God also commands that his loyal slaves must kill all those who do not obey his commandments. It is an established fact that religion can be a very effective and rewarding tool in the hands of shrewd individuals. It can be used to enrich oneself financially or spiritually. It can also be used to manipulate and control others for good or evil ends. It has been used as an effective political and commercial tool as evidenced by the many historic records of religious wars. Religious leaders have used their dogma to oppress, victimize and terrorize those who refuse to subscribe to their particular brand of bigotry. Religions and their Gods, has had more to do with human selfishness and greed than with righteousness, piety, compassion and spirituality. The many greedy charlatans enjoy success and prosperity from the exploitation of gullible and impressionable individuals, while the weak and less affluent individuals are fooled with false promises of a paradise called Heaven, which can only be accessed after death.
Regrettably, there is no definitive answer to what it means if a boy gazes at you in church. There could be various reasons for his behavior, and interpreting his intentions can be challenging. Here are some potential explanations: Positive interpretations: Attraction: He may find you attractive and be hesitant or unsure about how to approach you. In a church setting, people may feel less comfortable initiating casual conversations, so he might be using glances to express his interest. Curiosity: He might be curious about you and trying to figure out who you are or why you're there, especially if you're new to the church or he doesn't know you well. Spiritual connection: He might feel a spiritual connection with you during the service and be drawn to look at you for that reason. Neutral interpretations: Zoning out: He could simply be lost in thought and not realize that he's staring, especially during long sermons. Daydreaming: He might be lost in his own thoughts and not even aware that he's looking at you. Habit: He might have a habit of staring into space or at people without any specific intention. Negative interpretations: Discomfort: He might be uncomfortable with something about you or your presence, leading him to stare in a questioning or disapproving way. Creepy intentions: In rare cases, the staring could be a sign of inappropriate or harmful intentions.
The pope made a very moving speech, which inspired many people including the peasants and encouraged them to fight if they were religious, saying that all they're sins would be atoned for.
Peasants wanted to join crusades because it gave them legitimacy and representation. Otherwise, they were too poor and meaningless to have representation on their own.
Other peasants, which is why there were so many of them.
In short, Pope Urban II wanted to capture the Holy Land from the Turkish Muslims, and he preached vigourously on it, even going so far as to say joining in the crusades would ensure salvation. Soon many peasants had begun their own unofficial crusade, known as the "Peasants Crusade". The emotionaly unstable mob was slaughtered by the Turkish Muslims very easily. The official crusade is called the "First Crusade" [1096-1099] and it had great European nobles at the front. This crusade captured Asia Minor for the emperor Alexius Comenus, recaptured Jerusalem, and also a strip of land on the Eastern Coast of the Mediterrainean Sea. The "Second Crusade"s [1147-1149] goal was to attack Damascus (which actually was friendly to the Crusaders), but it failed miserably. In 1187, Muslims again took control over Jerusalem, leading to the "Third Crusade" [1189-1192] also known as the "Crusade of Kings". This crusade accomplished very little. The "Fourth Crusade" [1202-1204] didn't even reach the Holy Land, but attacked Constantinople. The "Children's Crusade" [1212] was utterly ridiculous in that the entire group consisted of children that marched toward the Mediterranean, hoping that God would divide the waters for them, instead, were tricked by slave traders, and sold to North African Muslims. The other crusades after this also accomplished nothing. In all, most of the crusades were irrational and unreasonable. What they DID do was open up trade with europe and the orient some years later.
The first crusade was so successful, because the muslim defenders were so un unified.
A score is twenty people. So a whole bunch of peasants.
....im gonna guess Peasants. I'm not really sure. Roman Peasants seems likes a retarted name.....so just Peasants i guess.
Were everyone peasants, there would be no peasants.
Royalty ruled and had many estates and castles so peasants lived in shacks and such. The geographyb was very different for peasants
He showed that all peasants are foolish so they are brutally suffered.
No he/it is not attractive at all what so ever
Peasants were similar throughout the world, but in China there was no modern technology so working in the fields were a lot harder.
