Narrow-minded people piss me off!

Quoted from some dumbass on Yahoo:
"Astrology is nonsense and scientists (very intelligent people) have proven it to be wrong with many studies (I'm referring to Astrology's main claim, that the sun and moon and your birth date have an effect on your personality or behavior). There are many studies out there that proved it's wrong, and not 1 single study that proved it's right. Intelligent people go on evidence they've been given to form a conclusion. Every intelligent person out there would conclude that it's fake.
The Precession of the Equinoxes is PROOF that you and everybody who believes in Astrology are not even the signs you think you are. It's been proven that most Leos are not Leos, most Tauruses are not Tauruses, so and so on. Bill Nye Science Guy broke this down into layman's terms and explained why this is in only 1 minute. It took him 1 minute to completely PROVE that astrology is fake. When something has been proven, that's it, GAME OVER, there's no coming back from that with other arguments. Proof is Proof, it's stronger than evidence, and it's definitely stronger than opinions and feelings. Proof beats everything."

Proof proof proof proof proof! These kinds of people make my blood boil. 'Oh sorry, science says it isn't real! Not listening to you! LALALALALA!!!' And nothing you say or do is going to change their minds, they'll just keep repeating the same thing over and over again: proof! science! beats everything! science! And the glue that holds it all together: some more proof!

And people once believed the EARTH WAS FLAT....SCIENTIST and INTELLIGENT PEOPLE INCLUDED!!!
I have a right to believe whatever the fuck i want to believe in.
If i believe balancing empty bottle of Snapple on my knee can cure my sprained shoulder then fuck science.
I mean, isnt it Scientist who say we are all made of the same shit we find in space? The same shit that created motherfucking Jupiter can be found in us too. That somehow we are all connected.
Someone tell these scientist that the "Warren Commission" also used science to explain the "Magic Bullet Theory" and the American people were spoon fed that fucking lie and the scientist just nodded their heads to that bullshit ass theory.
So please ----with these scientist who think they can explain everything.
Astrology for the most part has a positive affect on people. It has on me.
I could be on some type of prescription drug for when I feel depressed. But instead, through astrology I have learned that when I feel a bit depressed, it could be my V in S and finding an outlet for that energy helps me more than swallowing a pill that is going to give me more side-effects than my original condition.
So fuck
details
So fuck you, Bill Nye Science Guy.
You motherfuckers cant even explain the 'placebo effect'. Please.
How the fuck do you give someone a sugar cube and they get cured at the mere suggestion that they are taking something to help their condition? It shouldnt work. It doesnt make sense. But its accepted as PROOF.
There are exceptions to everything and for every 1 person who Astrology gets it wrong, i know 10 people who Astrology hits the nail on the fucking head every single time.

Theirs is ignorance. A purely intellectual assessment won't cut it, and the scientists that tested it aren't sophisticated enough. Imagine a non believer testing out astrology? They won't now where to look, plus they will attempt to prove their hypothesis, and ignore salient "proofs" because there are so many variables to look out for.

Agreed with Pisces and Wgamador too on the "frustration"!

"The devil finds work for idle hands."

Dutch oven is when you are laying in bed and someone farts under the covers and they pull the covers over your head so you can enjoy the trouser-ripper, baby.

First of all, I know astrology is real and can prove corrospondences and correlations . You as a Pisces just "know" or believe" things to be true intuitively which is why you have such strong "feelings" about this. But Pisces intuition is often wrong or misintepreted.
That said, consensus science is bologna. Scientists have "theories" which are beliefs at the end of the day. The only real science is mathematics, and astrology is a form of mathematics.


LOL.....smart Sag made the connection between astrology & mathematics......Winking
I just graduated from Math B.S., but never think about the relationship above...

.... that's the only thing that goes near reality. What we call today astrology was invented 2500 years ago in Babylon. The most important constellations, Nimrod aka Orion and the Snakeholder were left out on purpose. On the other hand the contelations themselves are not equal in size, so the 30-31 day month period is just hilarious. Get used to it... this is how they enslave us for the last 2000 years.

mmm astrologers (scientist (greek)) named 12 of the constellation after zodiac signs. i thought??? anyone can correct me if im wrong. please and thank you. smile

Wasnt the greeks. The greeks learned from the kemetians(egyptians) Imhotep taught hippocrates how to cure illness. How to chart the stars. Then the greeks and romans used the stars with malice.

Nope.
Although The Dendera zodiac (from Ptolemaic Egypt) which is a relief dating to ca. 50 BC and the first known depiction of the classical zodiac of twelve signs, the division of the ecliptic into the zodiacal signs originates in Babylonian ("Chaldean") astronomy during the first half of the 1st millennium BC.
