Well this is good, I like debate, and Mr Inchindown I like the idea of fairies and unicorns but I do not quite like the fixed idea of Anal fixated aliens as you are lol,you must be a syfy geek like me lol
And Mr Spantara that is true about seats on airlines,which I think is strange as they do fly on Friday 13th.
And yes it is people that make superstition over the generations, but as for religion i try to stay away from that subject as everyone has there own encounters with it and beliefs but I will mention further down what I think and feel about it and if it does not make spence fare enough., I do not believe in god but I have been given plenty of proof that there is something out there apart from you passing away and leaving your earthly shell and that's it, as I used to think. As last month the truth i have looked for or wanted shown proof of since my mother and father died was given to my great amazement. And I also ask myself how did we get here ?
when my youngest son joined the army which i did not whant him to do but he felt he had to which was fare enough as the service run through our familys from Police, doctors, Nursing and Army, he was sent to Iraq where he had done two tours. i did not turn to some unseen god and pray as i found it hard to believe why if there was a god did all this happen, and why two of his friends had to die, and why my son's gun had Jammed during a fire fight and why he just missed a bomb attack? and yes I did speak to his dead grandparents in my thoughts everyday he was away, as that was part of my superstition that he would be kept safe, he was kept safe and yes he was lucky to get away in a sort of a way as he suffers from PTSD now as one of those friends I mentioned died in his arms.
But I still have my little ideocentricetys and that is who I am, as my husband loves me for them although he was brought up catholic and is atheist my thoughts on religion are at times it insights hate and anger, which I try to explain to our daughter who goes to a catholic school is wrong and unjust we also try to make sure that that faith is not indoctrinated too her in anyway, she says she does not believe in god and that is her belief and we respect that as she is only 16 and has her whole life to find out things. but she has her little superstitions, like being a white witch and causing no harm to others but just wanting to show kindness and helping others , she has gifts that perhaps I encourage. And if people do not understand then that is there problem to figure out, as it is nice to be nice, as this world and some of its inhabetents are down right rude and evil.
Plus I like some of my little superstitions because it keeps my parents and there parents parents living on.Edited by: wilma08
