the templars found somethimg of enormous wealth to the vatican,this is where i believe it stems from although i cant produce evidence,but i aint no sheep like most sheoples today,if you have any concrete evidence or even another theory from yourself or any scholar i would gladly like to hear your views thanks for the reply,regards.mac.

@trust5mac Hi Mac, what I did find while researching this video was this, "The connection between the Friday the 13th superstition and the Knights Templar was popularized in the 2003 novel The Da Vinci Code. However, experts agree that this is a relatively recent correlation, and most likely a modern-day invention. Although according to many Freemasons, this date corresponds with the slaughtering of the Knights Templar by the Church."

@trust5mac This is why I didn't mention it in the video. Although it would seem the event you mentioned did happen on Friday the 13th, its a relatively obscure event in history (possibly because of all the secrecy!) I've added a link in the description above, its a 4 page long artical on why Friday the 13th is unlucky, if you skip to page 4 it goes into much more detail about the Knights Templar and Friday the 13th. Thanks again! Simon.

its got to do with the knights templar,when the templars came back from jerusalem after the crusades,they went too vatican city in rome,thi is where it gets tricky as they were all given lots of land and riches in return for what some people theorise was the ark of the covenant and where all sworn to secrecy,however.on friday the 13th of the year after,all roman generals were given a secret letter to be opened at the same time and date(fri13th) in this was orders to kill d templars,12 escaped.

@trust5mac Thanks for the comment, its an interesting point but that event happened in the 12th century and theres no reference to Friday the 13th being an unlucky day until the 19th century. If this was the true origin then it would have cropped up in the 700 years between those centruies, but it doesn't! The theory that its a 19th century amalgamation 'Friday' an unlucky day and '13' an unlucky number making 'Friday the 13th' really unlucky, is thought by scholars to be the most likely origin.

of course i cant prove any of what i wrote but i know this for sure,the templars started their own religion after what happened,they branched into many different types of christianity,some even mixed with (paganeism)have a look at the gnostic templars in america,i believe it,this was all secret until some time ago this may also be the reason it was kept mainly secret from normal folk,as the stone masons where supposedly the next in line to keep these secrets,and the plan is in full swing today.
