Religion, Superstition and Magic


The attempt of the atheists to destroy religion is ridiculous. They assume that religion and superstition are synonymous. They are actually opposites. They likewise assume that religion and science are opposites. Actually, religion and science are strikingly similar because they are both attempts however imperfect to help man understand the world around him.




According to the Oxford Dictionary

Meaning of the word Magic:
1. The power of apparently influencing events by using mysterious or supernatural forces.
2.Mysterious tricks, such as making things disappear and reappear, performed as entertainment.

Meaning of the word Superstition:
1. Excessively credulous belief in and reverence for the supernatural.
2. A widely held but irrational belief in supernatural influences, especially as leading to good or bad luck, or a practice based on such a belief.

Meaning of the word Religion:
1.The belief in and worship of a superhuman controlling power , especially a personal God or gods.
2.A pursuit or interest followed with great devotion.
