I don't beleive in Superstitious. I view every aspect in scientific view. Although my parents are still superstitious,I find myself in a diffcult position in arguying them for showing ignorance in the laws of nature. I think no matter which part of the world you tour, you will find the natives nurturing certain beliefs and superstitions and my dwelling place is no exception in this case. Though our society is fast progressing, there are many people who are still superstitious and have a strong faith in the local beliefs. While some of them are quite hilarious, few others are really interesting, as many aspects of life are linked to them. Few beliefs even find their way into the religious texts and scriptures. One of the height of Superstitious is a Man marrying a female dog. http://www.gadling.com/2007/11/15/heights-of-superstitious-india-man-marries-dog/

I have to admit that i am an antitheist.I don't believe there is ghost or good. The theary that bad guys would be punished is just someone's good wishes. Actually many evils have escaped the punishment.But i prefer to have this good wishes.

well, it is our faith which makes us believe in something and not in the others. some superstitions do have a scientific background and ought to be believed. people had a superstition that you should not utter about snakes in the night. to me the explanation appears that if you do so, it gets into the temporary subconscious part of your brain. so when you sleep at night, you get dreams and snakes may come into them. so it is definitely a frightening experience to see snakes in dreams. so this is a believable superstition. but all are not so. so it is upto us which one we believe and which not.
