Carl Sagan demystifies astrology (from COSMOS).

[WritingIsMyReligion]

This dude is terrific. How people can continue to assert the "power" of the stars over us absolutely boggles my mind.

Plus Carl Sagan has the Best. Voice. Ever. :)

1. The responses. Why did I look at the responses? Teh stupid! It BURNS! MY EYES!!!!

[eyepaddle]

3. Yeah, they got me too,

Ouch.

Did you check out the video responses?

If not, don't--unless you're in the mood for more irritation.

[Rabrrrrrr]

2. I can do it quicker: "IT'S PURE FUCKING BULLSHIT YOU MORONS! BULLSHIT!!

IT'S A SCAM! STOP PAYING INTO IT!!"

I suppose I could have just stopped at "it's pure fucking bullshit", but four words didn't seem like enough.

:rofl:

4. Pure ego trip

Imagine all those billions of stars and planets, stars that are the size of 100 of our own suns, all having a personal impact on YOU! Little insignificant you.

Oh, I don't wonder why this BS sells, but it's a pity that people can't face reality because it has it's own wonders.

5. actually, this is true for me

I just can't accept that it is also true for other people. That's my problem with astrology.

7. LOL, good one.

Reminds me of the Douglas Adams line...

"If there's anything more important than my ego around, I want it caught and shot now."
