True. You can see a garden is beautiful without thinking there are fairies living at the bottom of it. When Mrs Musket and her friends are in the ringing chamber giving it some ding dong, you can catch me wandering around, admiring the beauty and fascinated by the history. Many who are blinkered by irrational superstition make the mental leap to assume that lack of delusion might somehow be to reject the part superstition played in shaping our culture. It's just that people did it, not their imaginary friend. It says more about their insecurity than it does about rational people.
