However, the eight-character fortune-telling of birthdays is superstition. Birthday was originally just the time of birth, and it was the job of ancient magicians and Taoist priests to tell his fortune. This is idealistic, but the world is materialistic. Wang Chong of Han Dynasty once pointed out that the relationship between consciousness and matter is like the relationship between spirit and a sharp sword. The former is a derivative of the latter and cannot exist independently from the latter.
Some people say that this is not superstition, but belief, and that this is science, which is even more ridiculous.
The so-called is not superstition but belief:
Because faith is a manifestation of superstition (no one says that faith must be right, just like "inhalation", it is ok to inhale air, but you can't take drugs! ), for example, from the perspective of modern psychology:
Superstition refers to people's fear and obedience to the gods who think that life individuals (or life groups) have dominant power in their hearts. It is a kind of belief and behavior that people recognize the fate of ghosts and gods and pray for improving their own destiny when they encounter things they can't know and are at a loss, or when they encounter insurmountable setbacks and obstacles. For example, when people encounter difficulties, they often ask God for divination, fortune-telling, drawing lots, measuring words, reading faces and descending to the gods in order to get rid of them. Superstition is a morbid social psychology, which still has a market in today's society. It is an anti-scientific stupid mentality and behavior.
The so-called science is not superstition;
Science refers to an orderly knowledge system based on testable explanation and prediction of the form and organization of objective things, which is systematic and formulaic knowledge. Explain with simpler logic, science is not utilitarian, is fortune telling free? Science is to discover the laws of nature and to sum up the past. Is fortune telling about the past or the future?
So one can't take the exam, the other is not utilitarian, and the third is not to sum up the past. What do you study?
