THE DEVILS IN THE DETAILS – THESE PEOPLE SOLD THEMSELVES TO SATAN

Baphomet as an Idol of the Templars The history of the Knights Templars also contributed to why people think goats are Satanic. During the Crusades, the Templars were money-lenders who did business with King Phillip of France. Unfortunately, Phillip owed the Templars a large sum of money, but instead of paying them, he decided to have them captured and tortured into confession. 3 Several of them confessed to worshiping a goat-like figure or idol named “baphomet”. This coerced confession sealed their place in history erasing all the good they had done. Their secret society, outside of the bounds of the rule of the church, made it easy for people to suspect them of wrongdoings. They essentially became a scapegoat for evil, and it was from here that the Baphomet became associated with Satan.
