so many silly superstitions exist and many people really believe in them.. for example, if you break a mirror, you will get 7 years of bad luck.

Guy was sitting in a bar one evening when he notices the guy next to him has a wooden leg, a hook for a hand, and an eyepatch.
He says, "Hey, how'd you get that wooden leg?"
With a thick pirate or Irish accent (I have a hard time telling the difference to tell you the truth) the other guy says, "Well, one fine afternoon we was fightin' the Royal Navy when in comes a 20 pounder and clips the yardarm clean. Down she comes and lands on me leg and that's why I've got this wooden leg."
"Wow, so what about your hand?"
"Oh 'twas a day when me and the lads were takin' our annual bath in the lagoon, when along came a shark and nipped me hand clean off. That's why I've got this hook."
"Goodness. Well why the eyepatch?"
"One gorgeous morning I was takin' a stroll out on deck. I was lookin' up at God's blue sky when a seagull shat straight in my eye."
"Wait a minute! You mean to tell me that you lost an eye because a seagull pooped in it??"
"Well, it was the first day I had me hook."

Reasoning Book Pages 423-424:
John 2:19-22:
By what he here said, did Jesus mean that he would resurrect himself from the dead? Does that mean that Jesus is God, because Acts 2:32 says, "This Jesus God raised up"? Not at all. Such a view would conflict with Galatians 1:1, which ascribes the resurrection of Jesus to the Father, not to the Son. Using a similar mode of expression, at Luke 8:48 Jesus is quoted as saying to a woman: "Your faith has made you well." Did she heal herself? No; it was power from God through Christ that healed her because she had faith. (Luke 8:46; Acts 10:38) Likewise, by his perfect obedience as a human, Jesus provided the moral basis for the Father to raise him from the dead, thus acknowledging Jesus as God’s Son. Because of Jesus’ faithful course of life, it could properly be said that Jesus himself was responsible for his resurrection.
Insight on the Scriptures-Volume 1 Page 373:
On one occasion Jesus said to the Jews: "Break down this temple, and in three days I will raise it up." (Joh 2:19) The Jews thought he was speaking of the temple of Herod and used this against him at his trial, witnesses against him saying: "We heard him say, ‘I will throw down this temple that was made with hands and in three days I will build another not made with hands.’" (Mr 14:58) Jesus was using figurative speech, referring to "the temple of his body." He was put to death and on the third day rose again. (Joh 2:21; Mt 16:21; Lu 24:7, 21, 46) He was resurrected by his Father Jehovah God in another body, not one made with hands like the temple of Jerusalem, but a spirit body made (built) by his Father. (Ac 2:24; 1Pe 3:18) This use of building as applied to one’s body is not unique, for, speaking of Eve’s creation, it was said: "And Jehovah God proceeded to build the rib that he had taken from the man into a woman."—Ge 2:22.
