[[Image:2384975035_230a0eac30.jpg|thumb|right|170px|The [[Wall Street Journal]] reported: "A comprehensive new study released by Baylor University yesterday, shows that [[Conservative Christianity|traditional Christian religion]] greatly decreases belief in everything from the efficacy of palm readers to the usefulness of [[astrology]]. It also shows that the irreligious and the members of more liberal Protestant denominations, far from being resistant to [[superstition]], tend to be much more likely to believe in the paranormal and in pseudoscience than evangelical Christians."<ref>http://online.wsj.com/article/SB122178219865054585.html</ref>]]
'''Superstition''' is a belief without justification based on [[fear]] of the unknown or [[ignorance]] or on a false principle of [[causation]]. <ref>http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/superstition</ref>
