reasons as well.You'are supposed to keep your fingers crossed whenever
passing by a graveyard as a protection against evil spirits.And children
still cross fingers while lying to "cross out" the lie, which comes from
the belief that,if you at least crossed your fingers while lying,the Devil
couldn't take your soul,right then and there, in its moment of sin. |
