Are Catholics Superstitious?

Catholics have been accused of superstition for a very long time.
Sometimes the accusation has completely misunderstood Catholic faith. And sometimes… Catholics have given people a reason to wonder.
In this episode, Laura and Sara Sophia look at superstition through the history and devotional life of the Church—from ancient Roman accusations against Christians to buried St. Joseph statues, St. Anthony and lost keys, novenas, sacramentals, scapulars, and prayers that supposedly “never fail.”
What actually makes something superstitious? Is the problem the prayer, the object, or the way we’re using it? And how do we tell the difference between trusting in the intercession of the saints and treating Catholic devotion like a formula that guarantees an outcome?
Along the way, we get into St. Augustine, St. John Chrysostom, horoscopes, novenas, sacramentals, and the very human desire to know what is going to happen next.
Where the Church’s story becomes our story.
