These "good reasons" always seem to be, "I'll feel lost if I don't adhere to and/or profess this superstition."
Atheism has no answer to this psychological vulnerability and feeling of "lostness", except to say "man up, woman up, this is life and these are its bounds."
My objection is not that superstition exists or that it comforts some people. My objection to the practice of superstition is that it misguidedly imposes itself on public policy.
