I wish my mother would take me to the pond to say something when I was a child. This behavior is superstition. If you fall into the pond and feel uncomfortable, you should go to the hospital for examination and timely treatment, instead of adopting feudal superstition. If there is something really wrong with your body, you can't just say it.
Superstition is a person's spiritual belief. No matter who or what kind of person, they can't tolerate questioning or mocking their beliefs. Therefore, if you really want to convince each other and get rid of feudal superstition, you must first express your respect for each other's beliefs and then gain their trust. People's reverence and obedience to the gods who think that life individuals (or life groups) have dominant power in their hearts is a kind of belief and behavior that people are at a loss when they encounter things they can't know, or when they encounter insurmountable setbacks and obstacles, and pray for a better fate. For example, when people encounter difficulties, they often ask God for divination, fortune-telling, drawing lots, measuring words, reading faces and descending to the gods in order to get rid of them. Superstition is a morbid social psychology, which still has a market in today's society. This is an anti-scientific stupid mentality and behavior, which must be stopped.
