SUPERSTITION-ANY BENEFIT?

      Do you thing that superstition have benefits for us ?? Maybe for some people they agree but some are not because for some people, they know that superstition is not good for us. It can harm us.  But did you know that in superstition we can gained confidence? Yes! And it will proved of this article.
     Superstition is typically a pejorative term. Belief in things like magic and miracles is thought to be irrational and scientifically retrograde. But as studies have repeatedly shown, some level of belief in the supernatural — often a subtle and unconscious belief — appears to be unavoidable, even among skeptics. One study found that a group of seemingly rational Princeton students nonetheless believed that they had influenced the Super Bowl just by watching it on TV. We are all mystics, to a degree.
       Consider one “law of magic” that people tend to put stock in: the idea that “luck is in your hands,” that you can affect your fate via superstitious rituals like knocking on wood or carrying a lucky charm. We often rely on such rituals when we are anxious or want to perform well, and though they may not directly have their intended magical effects, these rituals produce an illusion of control and enhance self-confidence, which in turn can improve our performance and thus indirectly affect our fate.
       But the point is no matter how people believes in his kind of belief , we must d not forget to believe in out Jesus Christ because without him, we are not here. We know that believing in superstition is like not to believe to God. But it is not true because you yourself can say if you want to believe to  God or not.
