Things don’t become superstitions just because you don’t believe in them.
Just like there are well defined differences between myths, fairy tales, sagas etc.
> I’m not dictating what the word means
That is precisely what you are doing by trying to insinuate that I am using a "slur". You do not have the authority to conjure a belief system out of thin air, assert that it is true without evidence, and start dictating to people the manner in which they are allowed to speak about it.
A prayer is a prayer, even if someone is praying to a god that you are sure doesn’t exist. It’s still not “magic spells”, for example.
