LIFE STRAND 2
Superstition is a belief, half-belief, or

practice for which there appears to be no rational
substance.
Many people, in nearly all times, have held,
seriously or half-seriously, irrational beliefs concerning
methods of warding off ill or bringing good fortune,
foretelling the future, and healing or preventing sickness
or accident.
Superstition has been deeply influential in
history. Even in so-called modern times when objective
evidence is highly valued, there are few people who
would still cherish one or two irrational beliefs or
superstitions.
Tradition was the name given to those cultural
features which, in situations of change, were to be
continued to be handed on, thought about, preserved,
and not lost.
