Superstition is the difference between Paul's religion and Christ's. Everything Paul taught is drenched in superstition. Everything Christ taught is based on knowledge and understanding.

The origin of superstition is in the inability of corrupt minds to produce reason or understanding. Realities in corrupt minds are dissociated, which means broken into separate pieces. One reality cannot be related to another.

There are forces in corrupt minds which wall off separate realities and reshape them in conflict with objective reality. This is because sin creates forces—within minds and in society. Force is the basis of sin. Those forces dissociate realities—within minds and in society.

Therefore, the minds of corrupt persons are nonfunctional. Instead of rational analysis, corrupters produce stimulus-response reactions.

Motives shape the dissociated realities. Realities are shaped the way a propagandist would spin or rationalize a subject. All elements of a subject are bent to support the motive.

The shaping of realities is subjective. It thereby removes the contrived realities from objective reality. It also simplifies realities, as false realities cannot be large and complex without running into conflict with objective reality.

This whole process of derangement creates superstition in place of knowledge. Superstition means clinging to false assumptions in defiance of objective reality.

In the absence of objective reality, relationships disappear between one element of reality and another. Things seem to happen for no reason. Happening for no reason means magic.

Everything in Paul’s theology is based on superstition and magic in that there is no logic to it. It is just that way because Paul says so.

The most basic and significant element of Paul’s theology is the claim that sin does not have to be overcome, because Christ overcame sin on the cross. Anyone can see that sin still exists. There is no logic to such a claim. It replaces rationality with superstition and magic.

Christ and the true prophets taught knowledge and understanding as an essential requirement for life (Mat 7:8, 13:16, 15:10)(Mark 4:13, 8:18)(Luke 8:18, 10:23,24, 12:54-57, 24:45)(John 7:24, 8:43). They worked hard to remove superstition and magic from life, because those forces destroy rationality.

The primary knowledge that Christ and the true prophets taught is that people need to overcome sin and be moral to live. Morality has a logic. Replacing it with a magical fix is not credible.
