The Knights Templar meddlers or bunglers?

In: Knights Templar [Edit categories]

Answer:

The following are opinions from WikiAnswers contributors:

It is well known that the Knights Templar did overreach themselves, but was that through meddling or bungling? Myself, I would say meddling. They had become far too powerful and thought they could walk roughshod over everyone, but as they found to their cost, they couldn't. So the answer must be meddlers.
