Chivalry

Recently having joined the Knights of 1776 team I was beginning to wonder if I was rare that I believe in the values of chivalry.  Am I truly alone?!?

Depends on what you call chivalry.

I believe in chivalry in the context of humility, honor, and full selfless devotion to the cause of God & country.

sounds good to me. i wish i had more detail though.

I know

The problem is it is more a feeling & emotion and is thus hard to put to words.  I also like to call it the servants heart.

I also feel that chivalry has degraded these days.  I am chivalrous, but I also feel "alone," at least from my recent experiences.  Moral degradation is sadly evident...

 Based on that definition, I'm one of the most unchivalrous people around: Don't believe in God, not patriotic, never hold causes for more than 5 minutes, very proud of myself.

Then again, I'd describe myself as quite a moral person since I always try not to cause unnecessary or spiteful hurt to people. Chivalry in its true form isn't very relevent to Today, and even in its day it was mostly propaganda: most medieval Knights wouldn't think twice about looting a town and murdering the inhabitants. Chivalry was basically violence with divine justification.

I will only say that no man is perfect... its the true values behind chivalry that I support.
