It’s because on Friday the 13th of October 1307, King Philip of France had the Knights Templars rounded up and arrested for allegedly denying Christ, spitting on the cross, sodomy, and worshiping Satan. Templar headquarters in France were all raided and Jacques de Molay was arrested along with his leading knights. Some think the King of France made up the charges in order to claim the Templar’s wealth, but others, including Anton LaVey, Aleister Crowley and other prominent occultists believe the accusations were authentic.
The majority of the Knights Templar escaped and vanished and their massive amounts of treasure vanished with them. Evidence suggests that the Knights Templar created Freemasonry and continued their occult practices and business ventures under this cloak. Their knowledge of fractional reserve banking was carried on within the Mystery Schools, ultimately leading up to the creation of the Federal Reserve banking system by the Illuminati in 1913.
