That's awfully convenient: the planets we can 't see don't have such an

over the past, oh, four thousand years, to deduce their existence.


Does this spelling of celestial make you cool?


Oh. So you *do* use the planets not seen to the naked eye. How come
their existence was not deduced by astrologers?


Don't try to argue that the transliterations of the words have anything
to do with their modern meanings. The word "astrology" was already taken
when the science of astronomy needed a name. Otherwise, astrology would
be the word for the science.


This is foolish and prejudicial. If there was any truth to this
nonsense, then you could calm the worries of millions of teenaged boys
with a simple web site. The boy enters his birth date and location, the
program consults an ephemeris and tells him whether he's gay. No need
for the straight boys to suffer all that needless angst; no need for the
gay ones to suffer their uncertainty.

Oh, yeah, you're not a homophobe because the literal translation means
one who fears the same thing.

Astrology makes many falsifiable claims. Unfortunately, they've all been
falsified.

Oh, and tell the zombies they're blocked, too.

More like the ravings of drug - induced hallucination, much like
the Book of Revelation itself. It may well be the most astrological
book ever written, astrology is crap anyway.

This min character is a complete asshole. The basic tenet of real astrology
is that it is NOT predictive about future events.
