She accepts I just don't believe in things like that, and I leave her to think/say whatever she wants about it. She's not on my case trying to make me believe it too, I couldn't be with someone like that. I think she gets it from her parents, they're a bit "woo". I could probably straighten it all out with a bit of a lesson in critical thinking, but I think she kind of wants to believe in these things so I leave it be.
My wife's mum is into the same stuff. She insisted on "purifying" the house when we moved in by going around with some sort of burning twigs. Keeps'em out of mischief I suppose.
You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.
