Superstition

A superstition is a belief or idea based on mere fantasies without a rational or logical reason based on science or knowledge. It is associated with the folklore of peoples, as it usually represents a historical legacy passed down from generation to generation and may be religious, cultural or social, and may be personal. Among them is the belief of some of the paralyzed or crippled in the ability of a particular saint, or a particular saint, to heal them. Among the cultural or social myths, many people believe that the blue bead wards off evil, that the horse’s sole brings good, and that the crow flies them and the like, and they are pessimistic about the number 13. Therefore, some individuals make their own myths.
