While I disagree with you - and decline the invitation to exert any energy or time to argue - at the least, I respect how you've conducted yourself respectfully here.
A problem inherent in the "science IS God" cultural mindset which the two of you seem to be running is the presumption that mankind is at the pinnacle of evolution and if science hasn't figured everything out yet, it must not be true. It's a funny self-righteous God-complex, dismissing everything that doesn't conform to its own model for interacting with the world - despite the admission there is plenty more to explore that we don't yet know or understand.
Much of what science has "proven" to be true today, there did not exist the tools or methods to validate a few decades ago. But just because humans didn't figure out ways to "prove" it then did not mean it wasn't always true. Likewise, just because science hasn't figured things out yet doesn't mean there aren't truth to them now.
I was never arguing for a belief system, only presenting perspectives. Maybe astrology as you think of it is bogus. I make no absolute biased statements trying to box any of it into "true or false." It could be entirely "false" - yet, that's completely irrelevant to the points attempting to be made through this article, which is really about broadening perspectives.
Consider it a systematic framework. True/false aside, there's incredible amounts of wisdom to be developed through engagement in a structured framework that facilitates the practice of thinking in different ways - value to be extracted through observing and thinking in patterns, digging in deeper to understand the nature of cycles as they express through universal laws of physics.
You can completely dismiss the whole thing as quackery. And in your dismissal, you cut yourself off entirely from any lessons within the realm - which maybe had nothing to do with your original preconceptions of what the domain was.
I never posed any of it as anything resembling a belief to be defended against or propagated for others to accept blindly as truth without exploring for themselves, if it were an area of interest to them, to discover what within the subject might be of value to them. It was never a matter of having my view on the subject challenged which pushed my buttons - I could care less whether you or anyone else believes any of this to be "true" or "quackery," fully-well knowing there are alot of people who disregard it and don't care to engage deeply in the subjects to understand from unconventional angles. My buttons got pushed because @viciousrunt has chosen passive-aggressive manipulative rhetoric that is rather disgraceful - a pattern clearly transparent as he goes around calling others morons and offering not constructive criticism, but outright rudeness.
You, on the other hand, have some honorable decency and self-respect in the manner in which you disagree.
