I do not need to "apologise" when I am right. Christ said we have the right to keep and bear arms. In fact Jesus told His disciples, if they did not have a weapon (sword) to go buy one. End of story!

HalleluYAH !!! Praise the Lord! Holy! Holy! Holy!

This account of the crusade against the Cathars might be topical: it bears reading to the end. Just thinking about the history of how christianity was spread around Europe.

You would make a good JW. There were no guns or rifles to mention then. Weapons were mentioned, however. The sword was commonly used as a weapon in those days by individuals. The gun or rifle is the choice of individuals of today for a weapon. Therefore, the rifle can be used to replace the sword of yesterday. 🙄

HalleluYah !!! Praise the Lord! Holy! Holy! Holy!

Was it written by a Christian?

This is as close as the Catholic Encyclopaedia comes to admitting fault:

Ecclesiastical authority, after persuasion had failed, adopted a course of severe repression, which led at times to regrettable excess.

A Handbook of Heresies, approved by a Roman Catholic Censor and bearing the Imprimatur of the Vicar General at Westminster, refers to Guzmán's "heroic exercise of fraternal charity". His failure as a preacher is not mentioned, nor the fact that even using trickery and torture almost no Parfaits could be induced to abandon their faith. The thousands of Cathar deaths are not referred to except in the most oblique terms:
"The long and arduous task was at length successful, and by the end of the fourteenth century Albigensianism, with all other forms of Catharism, was practically extinct."

there were other weapons back then. he didn't tell anyone to go and get bows and arrows. he didn't say a keep a generic weapon handy. christ specifically mentioned swords for his direct followers, and a specific number of swords at that. do you have any clue whatsoever why he did so?

Yes I have already mentioned the reason to the JWs. However, the watchtower has already indoctrinated them with another reason that supports their theology.
