Science vs. Superstition

2025-12-10
Atheist Iran

Superstition thrives in the shadows of ignorance. For centuries, natural phenomena were attributed to jinns, evil eyes, and divine wrath. Today, science offers us a flashlight to dispel these shadows. Understanding evolution, cosmology, and psychology allows us to see the world as it truly is—a place of wonder governed by natural laws, not by capricious spirits.

Embracing science does not strip the world of magic; it reveals the real magic of reality. To know that we are made of stardust is far more profound than any creation myth. Promoting scientific literacy in Iran is crucial to breaking the chains of fear that religion has used to control the populace for so long.
