Its Friday,the 13th. Reminds mee of the terribly unwatchable movie...but i wont dwell into that. I'm writing this blog for all my friends who believe in "Bad luck bestowed on this day". Well, i actually don't believe that bad things happen only on this day , it can happen on any fricking day !!heheh...however if u belong to my school of thought, u may wonder" why only Friday the 13th???"...and not Tuesday the 23rd??"...Well, theres some gruel history attached to this date. All u ppl who enjoy Dan Browns,or Micheal Crichtons.....must know all abt it, but for those who are less informed....here it goes...
During the dark middle ages, the Knights of Templar, who were the guardians of the catholic faith against the increasingly spreading Islam, were slaughtered in mass numbers by the devout catholic priests, on the order of the reigning king as they were known to posses some dark anti-church information. Sad, don't u think....u kill for them and then u get killed by them!Anyways, a letter was sent to all the churches in Europe and a date...yes Friday the 13th, 1313...was decided was the day for the complete annihilation of the now perverse Knights. It is believed that they were tricked,caught, tied and burnt alive in groups in front of villagers. This sight, was later passed from generation to generation, by word-of-mouth technique, as being an unlucky day for the do-ers of good....and Hence Friday the 13th is feared by many...
However in today's world, i have rarely met people who are aware of the true myth attached to this date...they just think of the day as unlucky.Well it was unlucky....but only for those unfortunate knights...and not for us common "non do-ers of good"!The Knights have ceased to exist...but the myth of their valour and misfortune remains...Now have they ceased to exist for sure?...the question remains...
