It's just another day, there is nothing specifically unlucky about it...unless you're religious of course.
i dont believe in it either.But whats the religious aspect about it?
Friday I think has something to do with Jesus's crucifiction on Good Friday...
and I think the 13th refers to Judas as he was the 13th disciple
Judas was the 12th..
It's a combination of Jesus being crucified on friday, and 13 being an unlucky number.
Also, some centuries later, just before being executed, a templar knight cursed both the king and pope, saying they would die within the year, and they did. This happened at friday the 13th. (or so they say)
what is a templar knight? the one who searched for the holy grail?
Then explain why there are 13 disciples in the last supper?Quote:

I always heard it was to do with their being 13 people (disciples + Jesus) at the last supper.
The templars were nothing to do with the holy grail (unless you believe Dan Brown, who's clearly a nutter). They were one of the crusading orders, like the Hospitallars and Knights of Santiago, that were set up to protect Christian pilgims on their journey to and from the holy land. Successive wealthy and grateful pilgrims bequested them so much land and wealth over the generations that they eventually became rich enough to make the French kings jealous. The French king then had the pope (who he had in his pocket at the time) declare them as heretics and send the inquisition after them. Most of the conspiracies theories around them are rooted in the subsequent trials and the propaganda that the papacy put out to support it's case.
Spot on Funky :)
today is friday the 13th AND it's full moon !
a perfect night for a werewolf... :D
Friday the 13th is when you're supposed to wear all black to work or school. Just like me.
Here's some interesting garbage...
It is also considered unlucky for having spawned a number of terrible movies and television series which made people cringe.

and too how do you know he was the 12th, they argued about who was the greatest and jesus never specified rank, therefore he was just a disiple.
Bah, my college's MS Ofccie simiultanesously cirrupted 3 USB Pendrives in one day, deleted all pictures and for some reason we found ourselves wide awake instead of being half asleep. Truly strange.
Was a cat around?
Don't say it. You don't want to be banned again :)
Superstition and numbers:
1- The Unity (God)
2- The Pair (man and woman)
3- The divine Trinity (heaven)
4- The Four elements (earth)
6- The Devil
7- The sum of Earth and Heaven (four elements + trinity) - magic number
13 - 6 + 7 = chaos
:wave:
Whats 5 ? :ehh:Quote:
