Friday the 13th

KSigMason · 01-13-2012, 09:51 PM

Hope everyone had a good Friday the 13th. There are 3 this year, each one is 13 weeks apart and its on a leap year. This hasn't happened since 1984 (a good year) and won't happen again until 2040.

The Year of 13

I have heard of others, but the "theory" of why Friday the 13th is unlucky that I think is probably the oldest and most credible is that it was on Friday, October 13, 1307 that the King Philip IV of France had the Knights Templar all over France arrested on heresy charges..... So there is a connection between Friday the 13th and Masonry just as much as there is one between the Templars and Masonry.

Only through the theory that we come from the Templars and their demise on Friday the 13th.
