Title: 'Why Are Millennials Turning to Astrology?'
Post by: Nearly Sane on May 20, 2018, 03:27:14 PM

I suppose this might,amongst other things, be validation of Chesterton's remark:
“When men choose not to believe in God, they do not thereafter believe in nothing, they then become capable of believing in anything.”

I don't believe in astrology. We geminis never do. (Yes, I know it's an old, old joke.)

I’m a Gemini too and I also do not believe in astrology. What are the odds? There must be something in it.

If the forecasting ability of astrology works shouldn't identical twins be living identical lives; I don't remember seeing or hearing anything that would confirm this happens?
