superstition

суеверие

Superstition

Суеверие — это вера в сверхъестественную причинность — одно событие приводит к причине другого без естественного процесса, связывающего два события — такие как астрология, религия, предзнаменования, колдовство, пророчества и т. Д., Что противоречит естественным наукам. Оппозиция суеверия была центральным элементом рационализма Бенедикта де Спинозы 17-го века и интеллектуалов эпохи Просвещения XVIII века. Философы в то время отвергали любую веру в чудеса, откровение, магию или сверхъестественное, как «суеверие», а также необоснованное христианское учение. Слово суеверие иногда используется для обозначения религиозных практик, отличных от того, что преобладает в данном обществе, хотя преобладающая религия может содержать столько же суеверных убеждений. Это также обычно применяется к убеждениям и практикам, окружающим удачу, пророчество и духовные существа, особенно убеждение, что будущие события могут быть предсказаны конкретными несвязанными предшествующими событиями. Superstition is the belief in supernatural causality—that one event leads to the cause of another without any natural process linking the two events—such as astrology, religion, omens, witchcraft, prophecies, etc., that contradicts natural science. Opposition to superstition was central to 17th century Rationalist Benedict de Spinoza and the intellectuals of the 18th century Age of Enlightenment. The philosophes at that time rejected any belief in miracles, revelation, magic, or the supernatural, as «superstition,» as well as unreasoned Christian doctrine. The word superstition is sometimes used to refer to religious practices other than the one prevailing in a given society, although the prevailing religion may contain just as many superstitious beliefs. It is also commonly applied to beliefs and practices surrounding luck, prophecy and spiritual beings, particularly the belief that future events can be foretold by specific unrelated prior events.


Значение слова superstition в словаре английский языка

Первое определение суеверия в словаре — это иррациональное убеждение, которое обычно основывается на невежестве или страхе и характеризуется навязчивым почтением к предзнакам, прелестям и т. Д. Другое определение суеверия — это понятие, поступок или ритуал, вытекающий из такой веры. Суеверие — это также иррациональное убеждение, особенно в отношении неизвестного.

The first definition of superstition in the dictionary is irrational belief usually founded on ignorance or fear and characterized by obsessive reverence for omens, charms, etc. Other definition of superstition is a notion, act or ritual that derives from such belief. Superstition is also any irrational belief, esp with regard to the unknown.

ЦИТАТЫ СО СЛОВОМ «SUPERSTITION»

Известные цитаты и высказывания со словом superstition.

My work explores the frontier between rationalism and superstition and the wavering boundary between the two.

I like to say magic is the world’s second oldest profession, a mystical and often awe-inspiring spectacle that, throughout the ages, has blended superstition, trickery and religion.

Humanity has the stars in its future, and that future is too important to be lost under the burden of juvenile folly and ignorant superstition.

Human spirit is the ability to face the uncertainty of the future with curiosity and optimism. It is the belief that problems can be solved, differences resolved. It is a type of confidence. And it is fragile. It can be blackened by fear and superstition.

Superstition is the need to view the world in terms of simple cause and effect.

A quest for knowledge is not a war with faith; spirituality is not usually an infelicitous amalgam of superstition and philistinism; and moral relativism, taken outside midfield, leads inexorably both to heresy and to secular wickedness, which are often identical.

Superstition is the religion of feeble minds.

Man’s mind is like a store of idolatry and superstition; so much so that if a man believes his own mind it is certain that he will forsake God and forge some idol in his own brain.

Ignorance and superstition ever bear a close and mathematical relation to each other.
