If you want to be superstitious, have it it. It is your right regardless of what I think about it. I will support your right even if I disagree with it much like I will support the rights of the Klan to have a parade float even if I think their ideas are dumb. However, most times, religion tends to try to push itself into the public sectors and make rules trying to force others to behave in a moral way. Not saying that there are no other groups doing that but we are talking of religion. Perhaps if they had not tried to get political influence and force others to lead their lives following the code they chose, IOW, tying to make others live their moral code regardless of whether they want to or not, they might not be made the butt of jokes.
