Values should dictate a society, not superstitions.

Let them learn at school whatever they learn to pass the examinations, but at home let the education that you provide be the kind that widens their perceptions and takes away the germs of prejudices that infect them while they are out in the world.

If you are ready to learn and evolve, there is hope for you yet - if not, the world will pity you for a few days and forget you after a week.

It is all about the trade of ignorance. And India is such a bronze-age nation that is filled with these trades (astrology, palm reading, vastushashtra and others).

One way or another, all humans are superstitious.

If a God tends to reinforce the prejudices in a society instead of diminishing them from the society, then such God is worse than Cancer.

Reasoning is the cure for superstitions and bigotry.

Salvation is no supernatural or extraterrestrial phenomenon, though, throughout history it is seen mostly as something supernatural and mystical. Salvation simply means to be not bounded by the chains of primitiveness. Salvation means to see no human as the "other" person, but simply as a reflection oneself.
