but why superstitious? ("goodness to humanity" equaling in your interpretation) they saw machines as replacing human labor and maybe dehumanizing. can you explain, by modern standards, how superstition comes into play? also, i never read where critics of luddites accused them of being superstitious.
thanks for interest.
