Astrology debunked
Since astrology is an industry worth billions of dollars, i wanted to place here what I think about it. It’s garbage. Here’s Professor Dave explaining what the deal is:
He tests the claims of astrology, going through the possible mechanisms by which astrology might work, and testing to see if its predictions are true. He shows how anything that’s falsifiable turns out not to be true lots of the time, and anything not falsifiable is too vague to be useful. He points out that the number of astronomers who believe in astrology is zero.
He also points out that astrology isn’t harmless — it’s been used by people in power, like Ronald Reagan.
