What is feudal superstition?

Feudal superstition is a bad habit left over from the old society, which is generally composed of fortune-telling, geomantic omen, divination and other activities hosted by superstitious professionals such as Shen Han and Shenpo. Feudal superstitious activities have no formal organizational forms, rituals, precepts and classics, and are not as mass, national and cosmopolitan as religion. Ordinary superstitious professionals will gather and disperse at will.

How to understand and engage in feudal superstitious activities

Superstition is blind belief and worship of people or things. Narrow superstition is feudal superstition. Broadly speaking, superstition should include religious belief, because any religious belief is a manifestation of superstition.

Strictly speaking, religion and feudal superstition are not the same thing Every specific religion and religious group has established idolatry, such as the gods of Christianity and Catholicism and the Buddha of Buddhism. Although Islam does not worship idols, it believes in Allah and has clear objectives, doctrines, canons, venues and religious ceremonies. Feudal superstition, on the other hand, is hard to say that there are any common objects of worship, no established purposes, regulations and ceremonies, and no common venues for activities. The object of feudal superstition may be ghosts, mountains and trees. Feudal superstition is more primitive than religion, and its activities are mostly in local areas or families.

Scholars believe that religion and superstition are certainly not the same thing, but they are not unrelated. Superstition is irrational and has no scientific basis, while religion is the worship of supernatural forces (especially personified gods, that is, conscious, intelligent gods who control human destiny), which is irrational and has no scientific basis. So religion is actually the systematization and abstraction of superstition. Although it abstracts a lot of things other than superstition (such as world outlook and morality) and even has some reasonable factors, it still contains a lot.

Generally speaking, as long as it does not interfere in social, political and economic life and does not violate the national constitution and laws, the government will not interfere in individual superstitious activities. However, superstitious activities that undermine national unity and society, those that deceive people's lives, disrupt production and endanger the masses must be dealt with seriously according to their respective conditions, and those with serious circumstances must be punished according to law. Reactionary sects should be resolutely banned.
