Irrational beliefs

[Ravenshire]

Given some of the themes that have popped up in recent threads I'm curious about what level of irrationality atheists and agnostics (and whatever blends exist therein) believe they have or not, as the case may be.

I'd ask for honesty but I know I'm not going to get that, just try to be as honest as you can.

For this poll, irrational thoughts include;

I'm taking the lazy way out...

"Wishing things would go well/better for yourself or others"
I think most people, myself included, will plead guilty on this on. But, I've learned that if you wish in one hand and shit in the other, you wind up with a handful of shit.

"Believing in or offering other people 'luck'"
Nope.

"Some form of universal karma or other universal energies/vibrations (not scientific)"
Used to believe there was some type of reward system built into the universe. Until the universe taught me better.

"Superstitions or superstitious behaviour (lucky socks, black cats, 'never fail' items used for dates, Friday 13th, crossing fingers, blowing dice before you throw them, etc.)"
Never was much of one for superstition. I've blown on dice though. Not because I thought it would help, but because (at the time) I thought that was just the way you do it.

"Ghosts or spirits"
Nope.

"Conversing with deceased loved ones (including pets)"
Conversing with? No. Thinking my dead loved ones can actually hear my voice or thoughts? No. Getting out my phone to give mom a call because I just saw something I think she would find funny or interesting. Yes, especially when I'm tired and not thinking straight, but less and less with time. I still remember the first time I actually dialed the number and got... "We're sorry, the number you have called...." Brought back the fact that mom was dead in brutal fashion.

"higher spiritual powers"
None whatsoever
