Why Was Heinrich Himmler Obsessed With The Holy Grail? | Myth Hunters | War Stories

The Holy Grail, the most prized relic of Christianity has been shrouded in mystery for centuries. Said to be the cup used by Christ at the last supper it is believed by many to hold miraculous powers. For centuries Kings, knights and treasure hunters have sought it, but it has always remained elusive and out of reach of human hands.

    There was a documentary made in the late 1980s about this. The Nazis tried to get the holly grail but two archaeologists found it. Unfortunately it was lost down a chasm.

But Dan Brown would do the exact same thing when he stole the idea for the DaVinci Code from the Book ''Holy Blood Holy Grail,'' released in 1982, also about that region of France, also based on true events, so the story goes and that ended up in a huge lawsuit too.

    Two great legends came out of medieval Europe: the Holy Grail and the Wandering Jew. Neither had any solid historical basis. Both provoked literary work, and the Grail romances still occupy a place in the collective Western imagination. Wagner's Parsifal is one of the greatest operas. To think that the Grail isan object waiting to be found is to miss the point.

    I highly doubt that the Lord himself would allow someone SO appalling and evil as Himmler to have the Holy Grail, if it really does exist. The Holy Grail would probably be something simple like a wooden cup or some sort of tin cup. Not one adorned with jewels etc. The Savior's life was about service and preaching, not about wealth or gold as man does. His whole life was that of selflessness and giving. The EXACT opposite of anything Himmler or the Nazis were about. The best part of this video was Guy calling Himmler a nerd. ❤

    ​@samziegler4957 The problem is- if God doesn't exist, you have no one to blame for the way the world is. Things are just horrible and nothing can be done to fix that. There is no hope for all those tortured and murdered children in history. They suffered and died for nothing. If God exists, there is hope that something good is coming for them at the end. Sure, you don't belive it, but why not hoping? Nothing wrong with hope. Hope I'd better than being hopeless and miserable.

    ​@@gzdPr yeppers. Just to make the point, I would like to point out that the Jewish historical writings refer to Jesus as a Rabbi. To be a Rabbi, THE MAN MUST BE MARRIED. Who was his wife? Mary Magdalen, it's generally believed. After the Crucifixion, Mary Magdalen, and Mother Mary, hopped aboard one of Joseph of Aramathia's ships, and fled to Europe. Mary Magdalen was pregnant at the time, and therefore THE VESSEL OF THE BLOOD OF CHRIST, and therefore establishing the line of the Royal Houses of Europe.
