Another Failure

So what happened to all the "astrological"
predictions of 'doom & gloom' over Mars closest
approach as was glorously predicted by...you know who,
et al??
Just like 1924....nothing earth-shaking, out of the
ordinary happened, except for Arnold getting hit by
an egg....laid by the astrologers, of course.
Just another failed prediction, I guess...they should
be used to it by now, after 4000+ years of trying. ;-)

File it right under...the NYC nuked on 7/7/03 failure?

It's another New Age phantasy. There's absolutely nothing significant
about the closest approach of Mars. You might as well obsess about the
moon's distance from the earth, which is constantly varying.

And these hare-brained notions, which attract so much attention, do not
invalidate real astrology.

As above, so below.

"Real astrology" IS a hair-brained notion.

'Real astrology'? That's a contradiction in terms!

Because it was never valid to begin with.

"Real" astrology's utter failure to actually demonstrate that it's
any better than chance is the thing that invalidates it.

Well, when governments.....any government....prints paper money,
money, money, money...with no gold or GNP to back it up with,
what does one expect? Hyper-inflation, of course. (This has
nothing to do with Bush, BTW; I doubt if he even understands
that principle...Greenspan would, of course.)

So Viv,
what does validate astrology? Is there any study that shows it to be
accurate, real, valid?

Sure, Gauquelin did a massive study thirty years ago. You can easily
find his work, complete with 15,000+ sets of birth data, by doing a
Google on Gauquelin.

The attempt ever since, by ditto-heads, has been to pretend it never
happened.

Isn't ingorance fun?
