How should christians treat superstition?

We are by definition supernaturalists, believing in the spiritual realm. Is it wrong to presume ufo sightings are always imagined or fabricated?

The real Redpill is everything is caused by spirits but spirits are forced to operate within the laws of nature.

Everything when closely investigated has turned out to have natural causes but there are obvious patterns and agendas evident in certain things that should theoretically be random.

Interesting explanation but I don't think you can say so exhaustively. There are potentially supernatural event without natural explanation, right?

I doubt it. I don’t believe anything supernatural exists. I believe spirits are a part of nature. Even God is subject to formal logic which is why the universe has evil in it. Since God is perfection logically anything He creates that’s unique from Him will have some degree of imperfection/evil. I’m basically a fedora who came to Christian conclusions.

God is Eternal so He already transcends formal logic and is not subject to it.

Jesus is logic, Logos. God cannot go against Himself.

supernatural does not mean illogical.

logos does not mean logic.

Things God does might be done from higher dimensions so they will look supernatural to us.

But also depends what you mean by supernatural.

>We are by definition supernaturalists, believing in the spiritual realm.

While esoteric stuff happens only on the mind with no effect on anything in reality, God's work manifests in the actual physical realm, while being explained away as "accident" or "coincidence" by non-believers.

This is the difference between various "magic" teachings (usually involving drugs), which at most give you hallucinations and the actual truth (Christianity).
