Yes, the supernatural, and other controlling systems, that keep people obedient in low-level and magical thinking, prevents them from using science, tech and all the things that improve their lives. The systems teach to not question, don't go beyond right/wrong to higher thinking that needs nuance and real life data-backed what works. Also most don't learn how the ego tries to protect in unhelpful ways, and transcend the ego, in this life now. Don't let the old ways override the prefrontal cortex critical thinking and knowledge that is already proven. It's hard to do that if don't know about this or told it's bad to question, and the supernatural ideas are all one knows. Need broad education somehow that people welcome. Sagan's Baloney detection kit is a wonderful start, read The Demon Haunted World and the story of the invisible fire breathing dragon!

I wish everyone could escape the controlling systems and be free and self-actualize. We are conscious waves of one ocean, made of billions of years old elements, the universe understanding itself, continuous DNA from the first life to us, which survived all the extinction events, but many will suffer in the current, human-caused one. There is less suffering with less tribal and supernatural ways, since that is not the cooperation and data-backed ways the real world needs. The cosmos is indifferent to us and nothing supernatural is coming to save the one habitable planet we know of like this.
