Line 103:
* If [[Those Wacky Nazis]] are the bad guys, then the one wearing a [[Badass Longcoat]] and [[Commissar Cap]] is clearly one of the [[Gestapo]], although this is in fact a fiction created by Hollywood. The actual Gestapo were a subversive "secret police", and thus never dressed in a way that would be easy to identify.
* [[w:Holy Grail|The Holy Grail]]. Nothing in [[The Bible]] itself ever mentions anything remarkable about the cup Jesus used at the Last Supper, nor is there anything about it being used to catch his blood at the Crucifixion. The idea of a Holy Grail was a modern literary invention introduced in [[Arthurian Legend]], over a thousand years after Jesus is presumed to have died.
* The idea of monastic orders that require members to take a [[Heroic Vow|vow of silence]]. It is not uncommon for individual monks and nuns to take such a vow, often believing silence prevents any distraction that might prevent introspection or understanding of their faith, but as far as is known, none are ever required to do so.
