There are a lot of kind of charms in Japan. for example, for a safety of family, to against a house fire, to against a traffic accident, and so on. I wonder if there are charms like them abroad.
I think it's a kind of the business against the people's anxiousness. Actually, I've often seen an accident car has a charm against traffic accident at work. I guessed it hadn't worked at all.
Once, someone says me it worked! They have been saved their lives at least thanks to the charms. He had the point, but I've also seen accident cars of fatal accident a lot. Then I didn't want to make him mad, so I haven't said it. It's just my own opinion. I wouldn't mean to profane it.
I know a charm gives you a piece of mind. It's the good point of a charm for believers. When you get a amulet from someone, it makes you happy. It's effective enough.
I don't mean I don't believe God.
I know a lot of historical scientists believed God and charms.
Besides, I heard a lot of the most efficient physicists don't deny the existence of God.
But I guess he doesn't take care of me.
