But hey, it's your beleifs, and no one's forcing you to believe it.
I'm sorry but no, I'm NOT letting this one slide. The age of a given tradition (and it is a tradition, there's no peer reviewing going on in Astrology) has absolutely zero bearing on whether or not it has any worth whatsoever. There's a lot more to be said about the sciences behind Genetics than the pseudo-science of Astrology, and it's only a couple of decades old which is a child in comparison. Yet it's done a lot more for us than Astrology has in a millennia. You shouldn't even use the term loosely, you should just not use it at all. Astrology is a belief, just like Christianity or Judaism or Islam or Scientology or any number of unsubstantiated ideas and theories.
