    Tradition is a beneficial ingredient left over from history, and superstition is a harmful ingredient left over from history. In the past, this kind of thing would not be divided, because there was no way to use scientific methods**, and people were more inclined to believe that gods exist and can meet individual demands. Tradition may contain a broader concept, it can include all things in history, from all kinds of rituals, customs, crafts, etc., superstition is more inclined to religion, believing that gods can protect themselves, can bring abundant grains, can get rid of diseases, and bring wealth.

    I think traditional culture needs to be inherited and carried forward, but superstitious ideas need to be curbed, and their boundary lies in whether they are justified, because superstition has no scientific reason. But traditional culture is different, and it will give us some inspiration and insight.

    Tradition and superstition are not opposites, they have overlapping parts, and they can even be said to have the same roots. The difference between the two is that although tradition has its continuity, it will also change with the times and conform to the trend of the times. And "superstition" is stubborn, and it conflicts with the mainstream values of the times.

    In fact, in my opinion, all traditional culture and superstitious ideas have a complementary relationship, because this is an inevitable connection, so I think the boundary between them lies in the authenticity between them.

    Traditional culture is spiritual sustenance, which is used to carry spiritual civilization, while superstitious thinking is all the problems that cannot be solved by oneself or impossible things that one wants to rely on one's own imagination to realize.

    Tradition is to do things according to the specific habits or practices of the predecessors, or to follow certain norms. For example, Chinese New Year is a Chinese tradition. Superstition is the belief in something that does not exist and the belief in something that is wrong.

    For example, if you really believe that there is a monster called Nian today, how and how to get rid of it is superstition.

    Tradition accepts questions and directs people to the answers to their questions, and can discuss, scrutinize, and speculate. Superstitious peddling questions also sell their answers, and this answer is the only solution, and no question of its answer is accepted.

    Superstition is unfounded faith, such as Thai Buddhist card shops, all kinds of Buddhist commissaries, will ** solve the problem of Tai Sui supernatural items. There is no such thing in Thailand or India, and this is superstition. For another example, the domestic religion believes that the Jade Emperor is the god and that he is the birthday of the ninth day of the first lunar month, but the Chinese Buddhism believes that the ninth day of the first lunar month is the emperor Shakti, so as to belittle Buddhism.

    The question is, do Buddhists in other countries also believe that this god of China, even the heaven that the emperors of all dynasties worshipped at the Temple of Heaven, is the Buddhist emperor Shakti? If not, it's superstition. It's logical to be self-justifying.

    Tradition and superstition say that there is a boundary, how to say it? Tradition is like a lot of things circled by a pattern, and superstition is like applying a color to a specific image. If we talk about boundaries, superstition and orthodoxy can be talked about together, and the boundaries lie in the correctness of the object of belief.

    Traditional culture is the crystallization of thousands of years of civilization in our country, embodying the outstanding achievements of the Chinese nation for thousands of years, although it has gone through the period of slave society and feudal society, so that traditional culture is similar to superstition in form, but traditional culture and superstition are completely different in nature, superstitious activities will not only affect people's daily life, but also the characteristics of blind belief will promote the spread of cults, seriously threatening people's life and property safety and social stability, and the pursuit of "the unity of heaven and man" in the philosophical outlook in traditional culture, Confucianism's requirements for integrity and morality have a great role in promoting the construction of a socialist harmonious society, distinguishing between superstition and traditional culture, helping people to correctly understand traditional culture, absorb the essence of traditional culture, and fight against superstition more effectively.

    It can be said that feudal superstition has always been the most quintessential part of the "Confucianism" of traditional Chinese culture. Feudal society is a kind of social system based on private ownership, which is conservative and ancient. Feudalism is usually used to describe similar ideologies.

    Superstition, literally, is bewildered belief, and this conviction, which is based on blind, incomprehensible belief.

    It is as big as the loyalty and patriotism pursued by "Confucianism", the so-called "Fengtian Carrier" and "True Son of Heaven" that the monarch is divinely endowed with, and the ghosts and gods of the common people; Even the emperors of all dynasties and even the peasant leaders who rebelled all pretended to be the mandate of heaven, claiming to be "ordered by heaven" to "punish crimes on behalf of the people", or "to do the right thing for heaven". As small as the father and the son, the cycle of good and evil cause and effect. All of them are related to feudal superstition.

    In modern terms, feudal superstition should not be a derogatory term. It often represents a sense of carrying on the past and forging ahead into the future. Where the interests of feudalism and superstition are directed, we can directly distinguish the good and evil of feudal and superstitious beliefs themselves.

    In feudalism and superstition, "reverence for ghosts and gods", "cautious pursuit of the distance", "there are gods in the head", "retribution theory", "belief in gods" and so on are often the most powerful punishment weapons for moral constraints, and the result is to lead people to good rather than to evil, so feudalism and superstition in a certain aspect, we should firmly believe in and inherit and develop.

    1. What is the difference between religion and superstition?

    1. Is there a difference between religion and superstition? This is nonsense, there is definitely a difference between religion and superstition. Because, one is religion and the other is superstition.

    2. Is there a difference between religion and superstition? The answer is, in essence, there is no difference. This is because both believe in the existence of supernatural mystical powers and their effects and effects.

    3. What is the specific difference between religion and superstition? There are three differences: first, religion is a socially sanctioned superstition; Second, religion is a superstition that obtains a business license and market access; Third, religion is a superstition that is protected by intellectual property rights.

    In short, religion is a superstition that is recognized, admitted, and protected.

    4. Since religion and superstition are essentially the same, why are there two forms of religion and superstition? There are two reasons: first, superstition is an instinctive need of human beings, and human beings must satisfy their own instincts, which is the fundamental reason for the existence of religion and superstition; Second, the essential attribute of superstition is irrationality, so human beings cannot let it run rampant, and must be regulated, restrained and controlled, so the state and society should seek and provide people with standardized superstitious products, that is, religion, which is the fundamental characteristic that distinguishes religion from superstition.

    5. What are the conditions for superstition to become a religion, or how can superstition become a religion? There are three conditions: First, there must be excellent conditions.

    There is a master who can fool and make superstition bigger and stronger. Second, come across the right opportunity. Superstition can only be elevated to religion if the country and society do not yet have a corresponding religion, or if the original religion has been abandoned for some reason.

    Third, we must reinvent ourselves. Let yourself better serve the existing system and society, and finally achieve common ground while reserving differences and common development with secular power.

    2. The differences between Chinese and foreign superstitions and religions.

    1. Similarities between Chinese and foreign superstitions and sectarian teachings: First, the subjective causes of Chinese and Western superstitions are the same, which both originate from human cognitive closed-mindedness and self-boasting psychological needs; Second, the practical reasons for the emergence of Chinese and Western superstitions are the same, which are all derived from the publicity and promotion of local tourism resources. Third, whether it is China or the West, there are a large number of superstition lovers and superstition practitioners, and superstition is a very large industry.

    2. The difference between Chinese and foreign superstitions and religions: First, Chinese superstition often fools itself into traditional culture, and likes to invoke national feelings to talk about things, the most typical is traditional Chinese medicine; Western superstitions often regard themselves as overseers and are based on skepticism, such as Area 51, the Roswell incident, the moon landing, etc. Second, Chinese superstitions often boast that they cannot be explained by science, such as fortune telling, feng shui, witchcraft, and so on. Western superstitions often use science to construct superstitions, such as aliens, geocentrics, deep-sea people, lizard people, prehistoric civilizations, etc.

    Third, compared with the West, China's religion is relatively poor, leaving more room for superstition, resulting in the prevalence of superstition in China. At the same time, due to the lack of the overarching role of religion, the internal letters and styles of Chinese superstitions are relatively scattered and chaotic, showing the phenomenon of various superstitions being mixed and matched.

Personally, I think there is still a gap between traditional culture and stereotypes. Traditional culture is a custom that has been passed down from China for thousands of years and cannot be changed. The old customs can be changed through the continuous development of the later period, and if the old customs exist for too long, it is easy to affect the development of society.
