How to pursuade someone not believing in fortune telling

Upvote:0

How to persuade someone not to be too superstitious or too much into fortune telling? Cause based on the answers below, it's not appropriate.

We can't really (nor is it our job) to persuade anyone to do anything.

People have their own Kamma and go in their own direction in Samsara. The most we can do is to be good (Buddhist) examples ourselves and thereby maybe inspire others but its not something we actively strive for. If it happens then its positive and if not, then that's fine as well.
