Why are Hong Kong and Taiwan people superstitious?
Especially from some habitual expressions of people in Hong Kong and Taiwan, we can see that the tradition of believing in Feng Shui ghosts and gods has existed since ancient times. Most people in Hong Kong can speak Cantonese, while most people in Taiwan Province Province speak Minnan, so both Cantonese and Minnan have a very obvious feature, that is, compared with Mandarin, they retain some features of classical Chinese. As the carrier of traditional culture, language can easily carry some customary expressions in traditional culture. Then, with the continuation of idioms, the Feng Shui spirit that ancestors believed in before will be passed on to the next generation with the continuation of these traditional languages. If passed down from generation to generation, most people in Hong Kong and Taiwan will believe in Feng Shui ghosts and gods.
In addition, because Hong Kong and Taiwan Province Province are far away from the centers of ancient wars, many refugees will flock to the south, so Taiwan Province Province and Hong Kong, which are located in the south and less affected by ancient wars, have become shelters for some intellectuals. Some traditional cultures will naturally be brought to Hong Kong and Taiwan from the Central Plains, and they will be relatively well preserved. Therefore, it is natural for people in Hong Kong and Taiwan to believe in geomantic spirits.
But last but not least, Feng Shui ghosts and gods do not exist. We still have to believe in science, which is also the responsibility of young people.
