Correct me if I am wrong (I have every faith someone will), but  I seem
to remember that the Templars made two very big mistakes:

1) they had extra money (not a big sin)

2) they loaned it cheap to important, broke people (big mistake)

When the commoners decided that this order was "wrong", the nobility
might have been able to step in and helped, but  dead men send no "past
due" bills...

This is oversimplified, I understand.  Maybe this weekend I can get to a
public web access link.
