This coming Friday, October 13, 2017, will be the 710th anniversary of the slaughtering of the Knights Templar.

Some people think Friday the 13th was started because of the Knights getting so-called slaughtered on Friday, October 13, 1307.


In fact, they weren't slaughtered and Friday the 13th isn't based on that myth. Some were arrested that day but there was no slaughter. And Friday the 13th didn't appear until 1907, after a novel titled "Friday, the Thirteenth" was published. In his book on the number 13, author Nathaniel Lachenmeyer argues that before the 20th century, “13” had been an unlucky number, and “Friday” had been an unlucky day, but “Friday the 13th” wasn’t necessarily a concept.

It didn't exist before that, as far as history is concerned. So it has nothing to do with a fake slaughter of Knights Templar. But let's not let facts get in the way of fake news.

Guess that is why I have strong faith in God but almost no faith in Religions!

Could you imagine Jesus Christ today standing in front of the Pope and hearing the position of the Vatican on pedophilia past, present and solutions in the future? !! :roll:

Gotta agree with that. Even as a small boy I felt like I was dealing with a corporation if I knew what that was then.
The idea was sound but the organization side of it always bothered me.
I often wondered if the Catholic church started out as a "boys" club.

I am not sure where or when it lost its way but it was a long time ago under who knows what Pope?

It sure is a "Catholic Boys Club now"!

Such an easy problem to start correcting and solving now! It's called priests without celibacy ! :wink:

De-nut the priests and they will be celibate!

Isn't that what they do to keep young boys voices from changing and ruining their songs?
