Superstition is religion practiced in ignorance, an attempt to worship God without truth, driven by notions devoid of spiritual wisdom accompanied by fear.

Jesus said, " God is Spirit, and they who worship Him must worship Him in spirit and truth."

Brethren, the first spiritual truth is that we are to abound with love for God and for all people both in Heaven and the earth.
Superstition breeds hatred and bigotry while truth fosters love and mutual respect.

John the Apostle in his letter said," Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God. And everyone who loves is born of God and knows God. He who does not love does not know God; for God is love."

Brethren, in perfect love there is no fear.
The religion of the fearful is superstition.
