Can you give me examples of superstitions that have scientific basis?
Consider the superstitious beliefs that it is unlucky to walk underneath a ladder, and unlucky to break a mirror. Things can fall off ladders, so some actual risk exists. And mirrors, when this superstition originated, were quite expensive, so it really was quite unfortunate to break one. Aside from which, you can cut yourself on pieces of broken glass. So some element of truth can be found in these two cases, although the concept of bad luck is generally extended well beyond the point of any scientific validity.
