Law of Similarity

Some great examples of law of similarity are famous superstitions in baseball. The law of similarity states magical that similar things have a certain connection and acts done to one will have effect on it likeness. A great example is the curse of the Bambino, aka Babe Ruth. Back in the day the Boston Red Sox traded Babe Ruth to the New York Yankees. If you follow baseball you know that the Red Sox and the Yankees don’t see eye to eye. The Red Sox were given this curse and this was thought of as reason why the Red Sox hadn’t won a World Series in 86 years. But in 2004, 86 years after the trade, the Sox finally won the World Series and broke the curse.
