Hey, I just realized today is Friday the 13th.
Spooky, ain't it. Must not be too much to that unlucky nonsense if I spent the better part of the day unaware it was Friday the 13th.
By chance how many of you know why Friday the 13th in considered by some to be unlucky?
It all comes from obscene wealth and avarice.
The obscene wealth of the Templar Knights in France and the avarice King of France.
The Templar Knights were very secretive and had more wealth in their temples and fortresses than did the King who was in desperate need of funds to run the country on - it was not just avarice on the King's part ... need played a small supporting role.
The King sent his soldiers to take the wealth of the Templars and to execute them as heretics against the teachings of christianity - remember the Templars were a christian sect - and the day he sent his soldiers was ... yep, Friday the 13th.
So, in reality Friday the 13th is only unlucky if you happen to be a member of the Templar Knights in France in the high middle ages.
