Are you superstitious? (How do you behave on Friday 13th?)

[Layla]

I believe there are 2 kind of persons: the one that believe the person that believe in God and therefore doesn,t believe in superstition and the other one is the person that is superstitious and has it hard to focus himself as a believier.
Regarding to the number 13 I'm not afraid of it, because everything beautyful has happened in my life is conected to this number.I first dated my husband on 13, I got married on 13, my first daughter was born on 13, so there's no reason to believe that something is wrong with that number. Anyway sometime I find myself in superstitious situation asnd after that I feel guilty because I love that fact that I believe in God. And when you go through this situation you become afraid and raise the question is you faith strong enogh?
When I first came in USA I saw people behaving weird about the number 13, and this was a good lession to learn that I had to stick with my faith as long as this number was so lucky to me.

HI
This is the first time I join in this forum. I'm not supersitious. Sometimes I find that the 13th Friday isn't unfortunate so I behave like an ordinary day. But my mom is supersitious, she thinks that breaking the mirror usually gives us unlucky things and many people in my country (Vietnam) think so. I haven't done it. What do you think about it? Do people in other country belive that? Please tell me some more supersition in your country.

Hi, everybody :D

Actually, I'm not superstitious at all

I think it's the worst thing to think that these fables will make any effect to your life, as controlling your health, romanticist, or financial situation

So, I do -freely- anything in anytime without any fearing from fables, as a result: I live in comfort and everything goes well in my life :wink:

we have in my county some of these fables such as putting a blue pearl or say "five" to avoid bad eye, or cleaning the house in the night bring the poverty….. :?

In fact I can't imagine how they do that in the 21st centaury :!:

BTY being a superstitious is not Islamic (my religion is Islam)
this religion respects our brains, bodies and souls

I hope everything goes well with everyone in this forum.

Hi Torsten,

When it comes to fear, one must fear the one only. This my belief, but I fear a lot of things. 13 is not amongst them.

[Meeruts]

I am not superstitous. I belive in working hard.
If one is hardworking nobody could stop one achieving his/her goals.
I personally think there is special reason for every superstition.If one is superstitious he will not do some important work on that particular time or day, in this way some time one can loose some important things.

Oh! I'm not superstitious. It's only in the mind. God created us this power to think. So If you believe that God is omnipresent, should you fear what you hear from others superstitions or what your parents had instilled on you? Being a superstitious person shows a distrustful act in the eyes of the Lord. God bless to all.

Hi

I don't take superstitions seriously, but I have this blue glass pendant - the eye of Fathima from Turkey and I wear it now and again to bring me luck!
My mother is superstitious - she believes in special numbers and that seeing a particular kind of bird or animal will bring luck.

I am not superstitious. I don't believe that a simple number or the view or the touch of something can bring happiness or misfortune.

Hello,

How can I become a suprsticious, I can't. Just because I was one when being a little boy and since I understood Jesus Christ is my Life's Lord and GOD, I can fear nothing, and even if it happens I be afraid of siomething, I am not suprsticious.

And about the number 13, I believe it's just Pagan's inventions which reached Christians all over the world.

Thanks for stopying by my answer.

Dear my teacher!

i'am one of your student, sulaiman from afghanistan and kabul city, and you asked in the 13th email lesson that are you superstitious are not if so please give examples.
my answer is that for you that iam not superstitious, in my idea people who are superstitious believe in things that are not real and possible for example magic.
second E.g:- a superstitious man with a unnatural fear of dark, for this reason i say that iam not superstitious.
