Everyone here seems to be relatively intelligent and to-the-facts logical, I'm just curious as to what everyone's overall opinion is on astrology.


Its one redeeming value si that the obsession it generated with observing the heavens set the basis for astronomy.

BTW Astronomy is one of the odlest sciences and one of the most sueful. Astronomy makes possible suh things as calendars, which enables you to know the lenght of the seasons, which enables agriculture, which makes civilization possible. Astronomical knowledge was also essential for navigation until quite recently.
A soul is a terrible thing to waste on religion

When I was like 10 I told my mom I wanted to be an astrologer (I meant astronomer). I have never seen my mom freak out as much as she did that moment in the car.

I seem to recall that it took myself (or is the right word "me") until at least 12 to get the two straight.
It's not whether you win or lose; it's whether or not you had a good bet.

My feelings for astrology are about the same as my feelings for superstitions. And that can be summed up by my signature phrase.
Superstitions are silly, childish, irrational rituals, born out of fear of the unknown. But how much does it cost to knock on wood?
