Rationality 1 : Superstition 0
On 3 March 2008, in a popular TV show, Sanal Edamaruku, the president of Rationalist International, challenged India’s most “powerful” tantrik (black magician) to demonstrate his powers on him.
Minutes turned to hours as the tantrik tried spell after spell against Sanal Edamaruku, attempting to kill or harm him. Live on TV (attempted murder in front of hundreds of thousands if not millions of witnesses?).
Of course, the tantrik failed. More here.

To be honest all this superstition is just crazy. I personally think that these people lie to them self’s so much that they then believe that they process this magical power.
Anyway I haven’t been blogging for a while. I have been to busy with college work and such and in theory I should be for quiet a while now.
