dviddy Posted January 30, 2012 That's actually why Friday the 13th is a day of historical unluckiness. Quote Link to comment
Grantaire Posted January 30, 2012 I have heard that that was actually unfounded, and that the Friday the 13th superstition may have had other origins... but if it was the origin, I call it a worthy one. Quote Link to comment
BULiK Posted January 30, 2012 yeah, it's really saddening. all those guys burnt at the stake..... Quote Link to comment
Grantaire Posted January 31, 2012 I find their torture more horrific: at least when being burned they died a martyr's death, instead of having false confessions torn out of them... Quote Link to comment
