Jesus was also violent, but in a different way; he believed that "the Son of Man" (likely, an angelic being), would come from heaven to destroy Rome.
Jesus was not the only leader the Crusaders looked up to in the Bible.
You'll get no argument from me! By the way, Charles, a Catholic, was successful at Tours precisely because he was violent and knew how to teach violence!
