No stop, that's a deadly bad idea.

>In 1924, Bogdanov started his blood transfusion experiments, apparently hoping to achieve eternal youth or at least partial rejuvenation. Lenin's sister Maria Ulyanova was among many who volunteered to take part in Bogdanov's experiments. After undergoing 11 blood transfusions, he remarked with satisfaction on the improvement of his eyesight, suspension of balding, and other positive symptoms. The fellow revolutionary Leonid Krasin wrote to his wife that "Bogdanov seems to have become 7, no, 10 years younger after the operation". In 1925–1926, Bogdanov founded the Institute for Haemotology and Blood Transfusions, which was later named after him. But a later transfusion cost him life, when he took the blood of a student suffering from malaria and tuberculosis.

So? It's already proven that blood transfusion from young people helps people to look more young. He is a dreamer not a superstitious person
>>70346783
Even if you consider that superstition, that's one person from the early 20th century. Hardly compelling evidence of the tendency of non religious people to believe in the supernatural.
Its fine to be religious but to deny that religious people are more prone to superstition is just sheer wilful ignorance, or utterly pathetic projection from insecurity.

On 節分の日, throw beans from your door and yell "鬼は外! 福は内!".
You should also place a little mound of salt outside of your door, and hang pic related inside of it.

i really like this kind of stuff but it is sad because it reminds me of myself
>>70347797
This definition is just too broad. You can read about different superstitions and you will that there is a difference between a superstition and pseudoscience
>>70347797
As a native english speaker, i can tell you you're wrong. it also doesn't logically follow that because both result from ignorance that they are both the same.
