Of course these things are very important when it comes to stuff like politics, because we do need some sort of evidence or hard fact to make correct decisions.
However, I think that this obsession kills that little bit of magic in life otherwise. For example I love superstition, horoscopes and palm reading. I’m a majorly lapsed Catholic but I do still quite like bits of the religion.
Do I believe in any of these things? No.
Do I salute magpies and check my horoscope? Yes.
Why not? I think we don’t have enough of these whimsy little things in our lives, yet so many people think them stupid. I think it adds a little bit of fun to life. I think it’d be boring if everything was completely logical, or if we knew everything
