Agreed 100%. But sadly, it would seem that a penchant for superstition is a part of human nature. If it's not theism, it ends up being something else (like ghosts). And I'm not sure nurture alone could stop it. Which is why it would be better and more realistic (but only just) to learn to recognise and rise above superstition in matters that count.
