believing in a practice that...? Generalizes people based on something they have NO CONTROL over gives skeptics the right to state their beliefs? For example if I say I believe in ghost. I would be pretty pissed if some random skeptic got in my face and preached to me as to why ghosted don't exist. Because my belief in ghost has NOTHING to do with that skeptic. But I personally can see why a skeptic WOULD come here and state skepticism through proof. Because astrology is based on people? What if that skeptic has a mother born under that sign you generalized negatively? What if a believer said "I wanna see all [insert sign] dead? (I've seen it happen). You saw the destruction Hitlers views on the Jews created. Now replace the word Jew with Aries, or Leo or Virgo...See my point? I personally think it's good to have skeptics at least in sections that give possibilities of crazy events. Man is capable of very good AND dark things.
? ????????? ?, you missed the whole point. The mother zodiac sign comment was minor. The main point is you're throwing loose in consistent statements about people born under a sign. Something they have no control over. Astrology skeptics don't only exist here. They exist out in the real world too. And they make sure astrology has no place in the court system, educational system and etc for good reason...Zodiac signs may not have a physical description but what they do have is hardcore believers who ask for your birthday with you NOT knowing they are sizing you up based on that info. Let me ask you. How is a person supposed to know when they run into an astrology that will do that. Because based on users in this section, ppl like this obviously exist.."...Would you rather be judged by your race? or your Zodiac Sign?"...I rather be judged on neither.
? ????????? ? I would rather be judged on neither because you underestimate the nature of the beast. There is hardly a dark act man hasn't done. If astro skeptic just let stuff fly, then what. There's always a Hitler in the dark that will use any opportunity to get back at that Jew they don't like. Or in this case that [insert sign] they don't like. If skeptics weren't around, who knows if those visions would be a reality. I say with every "belief system", be need a "CONSISTENT evidence system" to keep balance.
Spirrowbird I totally understand what you said and I agree...You and I both know I understand both sides. Which is why I called this question "Devils Advocate"...Anyone who's seen me in this section knows I like astrology. But I also take it with a grain of salt. Because unlike most people hear, I actually read what Chain has to say and what he says makes a lot of since too. Even believers in this section have said how contradicting their charts are. One planet placement says you're dominant, the next aspect says you're weak. And when Chain acknowledges that contradiction believers wanna get mad?
(sorry for the screwed up typos).
????????? and further more. It doesn't take possibilities of genocide or mass murder on a particular sign like tell that it can lead to violent possibility. Like segregation are random bulling. Higher suicide rates from being outnumber at school by a sign that doesn't like your sign...You having that "what are the odds of that happening mentality", is exactly they type of mentality that darkness need to sneak it's way in and catch you by surprise. My opinion is why not kill problem before it gains momentum. And THAT'S what skeptics do. Skepticism doesn't necessarily "kill" it completely. But it keeps things balanced.
angelfly- you've found you're debater.
