Mythology & Folklore - December 2007

Many people, prior to the mid-70s, would not take a morning bath and go out. Also, they wouldn't go to bed with wet hair or wash their hair in the morning and go out. They were told they would get a cold, but I am only interested in where this belief originated.

worshipped a higher power of some kind, whether it be a Sun God, a Thunder God, maybe an Apollo, maybe Totems, maybe a Rainbow Serpent, maybe the God of Israel, maybe Allah (the same??), or maybe even the Virgin Mary, Egyptian Pharohs etc. etc. Do human beings have an inate drive to worship something that maybe cannot be Scientifically proved??? and why in this day and age does it seem a lot think it is an either/or question re God and evolution. Please explain.

What's a good movie that's about Greek mythology (i.e. Greek Gods Zeus, Ares, Athena etc), that actually looks realistic? Only one I know of is Clash of the Titans and it's cheesy.

My aunt says that every year on New Year's she puts change near every window in her house and it brings her good fortune throughout the year. She swears by it. Does anyone else do this and does it work?

My mother eats black eyed peas every New Year's day. She says it brings good luck thoughout the year and she won't start the year without them.

Do you know any other New Year's superstitions? (Even if you don't personally believe that they're true.)

I have asked countless questions here, trying to find out how these people tick and have been put down, reported and received many strange answer that had nothing to do with my question.
Just watch, there will be some hatred and comedy from both sides here, but guess who will strike with the most venom?
Still, no relevant answer, never get one I guess.
