Ancient scientists in China put forward many modern theories. Why were people superstitious at that time?

First of all, we should make clear the connotation of superstition: the embodiment of natural forces beyond the scope of human resources.

Superstition in the present concept is blind worship and derogatory meaning. Superstition in the field of cultural science can't explain the scientific theory at that time, and it can only be pinned on God.

Newton and Einstein devoted themselves to theology in their later years. When scientists reach a certain depth in their own fields, they will find their ignorance and the mystery of nature more and more. The complex society and the vast universe make people feel small and powerless. Many unknowns can only be pinned on God.

We ordinary people are simpler. In our life, even in our daily life, we will encounter many bumps and tribulations. Many times, we will feel helpless and helpless. In the end, we can only "resign ourselves to fate."

Moreover, the superstition of a certain nation or a certain village is too blind, even a little ignorant.

Therefore, the root of superstition is ignorance and ignorance.

There are many ignorant people in the world, and the unsolved mysteries are vast.
