Why Astrology is a Whole Load of Rubbish
Created | Updated Nov 9, 2002
A distressingly large number of people are now resorting to astrology because they cannot cope with reality. Either that, or they are addicted to it because it says in EVERY SINGLE horoscope that they are going to fall in love with a nice guy/girl this week.
Clearly these people need to give the relevance of astrology some serious thought. How could the alignment of planets in our star system with patterns of stars that ONLY APPEAR AS WE KNOW THEM IN OUR STAR SYSTEM possibly affect our day-to-day lives? Oh, my God Mars is in line with Capricornus! That means im going to get raped and thrown off a skyscraper by a mad penguin that has escaped from a disreputable zoo in Bangkok!
Perhaps it seems fine from the Earth but look at it from a few light years away from the Solar system and you'll realise how stupid it is. The only REMOTELY POSSIBLE effect an extraterrestrial body could have on humans is the moon, which could pull on our brains in the same manner as it pulls on the sea.
