origin of friday the 13th

[Maccabi]

well, I personally decided friday the 13th is a day of good luck.

not sure what the origin of it is...I looked it up online and found a few different stories...mostly pagan european trash. so I've concluded that to not feel any superstition for this day could be a powerful blessing.

actually, I think getting over all superstitions is good luck.

I'm not sure if yu are right.
can you tell me more about paganism? Would it be alright to go back to paganism?

ANd if what you are saying is true, then why is Europe and America christian nations?

I mean that superstition is trash. the people that are bothered by superstition it may not be very evil, but evil superstitions are satanist witchcraft stuff. It is very evil to riddle people with evil superstitions in my opinion.

what did the pagans worship?

I'm not condoning paganism.  I'm just saying that before the people of Europe were Christian they were pagans. 

The Germans were:

The religion is not trash, its the religion of our ancestors before christiantiy was brutually brought across the continent.

I heard Friday The Thirteenth has to do with the 13th apostle of Jesus betraying him and then he was executed on a Friday.

Jesus had lots of apostles, but there were only ever twelve in his inner circle, there was never a 13th. Yes one of the twelfth betrayed him, but he wasn't executed for it, he hung himself, he betrayed Jesus to the Pharisees in exchange for some money, then afterwards threw the money back at the Pharisees and hung himself.

The First Friday the 13th
On Friday the 13th in the year 1307, the month of October [thanks, Jonathan Curtis], all of the Templars in France were rounded up and emprisoned - "Friday the 13th" has been an unlucky day since that event.

Alleged Crimes and Real Punishments
 The Templars were charged with Satanism and many other "unnatural" acts and practices. Many of the charges may have been complete fabrications, but some could have been distortions of secret rites of the Templars. There were torture-encouraged confessions in the style of the Spanish Inquisition, and many were found guilty for refusing to "confess".

Many of the Templars in France were terminally punished, á la Joan of Arc, including the Grand Master, Jacques de Molay [graphic, left], who was burnt at the stake in 1314, near Paris' Notre Dame Cathedral.
