Are there any superstitions within Christianity?
Whether there are any superstitions within Christianity depends on your definition of superstition.Some see all religion as superstition and on that view Christianity is, in its entirety, superstition.The ancient Romans did not regard their own religion as a form of superstition, but when Christianity came to their attention, the authorities labelled it superstitio - a superstition, again in its entirety.Fear of the devil and of demons is consistent with superstition, and rituals of exorcism can be called superstitions. Similarly, the earlier Christian belief in witches was a form of superstition.Veneration of saints was controversial in early times, as some Christians saw this as akin to polytheism.

How and why did the black cat superstition come true?
I have a feeling it is because of the fact that one of the most popular familiars for witches is a black cat. And back then they were mightily afraid of witches...i think that's where the Friday the 13 superstition came from as well. But of course not all witches are evil, so i don't think the black cat superstition really is true
Can the law to eradicate superstition in India really help to eradicate it?
Any legislation aiming at eradication of superstition is sure to fail in achieving the goal. Penal codes have failed to curb perpetration of crimes. So will any codes on eradication of superstition. What is necessary is spreading education throughout the length and breadth of the country to arouse zeal for analytical mind.
