    Why oh why don’t one of you whinging astrologers get off your backside & put astrology to the test & demonstrate some positive test results. All you do is whinge and moan about Randi et al as if they have committed some crime, when all that has been done is expose how people can be mislead by an astro reading. Surely the collective wisdom (?) of a few astrologers can demonstrate something to convince the skeptics they may be wrong. Are any of you capable of grasping this concept? I doubt it.

    Mr. Randi wasn’t even looking for answers, he already had HIS answer: all astrologers are frauds and/or deluded people. The tests were constructed in order to reinforce this idea, they were not meant for objective research. A true scientist can overcome his own ego to dig a little deeper, it’s about science, not about him.

    For the record, I do not believe in forecasting or prediction, just relationships. Mr. Randi does a clever job of illustrating the power of mind control that astrology can evoke.

  8. By wavepulse12 on Jul 9, 2009 | Reply

    Mr. Randi needs to combine Chinese astrology (which has been practiced and believed by Asian culture for thousands of year) in combination with Western TROPICAL astrology. Playing on the ego’s of this classroom using the universal desire to overcome nature as a basis for justifying HIS Beliefs. Remember people, James Randi is A MAGICIAN AND AN ENTERTAINER, Not a Scientist. A real scientist is never so smug; they keep searching for answers, even just to know WHY people believe.

    I agree, science is full of theories. Now you understand the definition of a theory you understand why.

    If “science” was full of unproven ideas, speculation, blind ignorance it would be called “astrology”.

  11. By zzytrewq on Jul 17, 2009 | Reply

    Wrong, you have a layman’s understanding of the word “theory”.

    The definition as used in the scientific community is more meaningful.

    Theory: A theory is more like a scientific law than a hypothesis. A theory is an explanation of a set of related observations or events based upon proven hypotheses and verified multiple times by detached groups of researchers. One scientist cannot create a theory; he can only create a hypothesis.

    No contemplation, no speculation. Those are astrological. LOL

    Without looking anything up – theories are based upon our thoughts around what ‘should be’. Our past thoughts follow through to another assumption and a theory follows. The theory is either proven or not. Science is still full of theories as contemplation, speculation. Casual use by scientists of the word theory can be used flexibly to refer to whatever kind of explanation or prediction is being examined. Science is still full of theories.

    If Mr. Randi fulfils all these conditions we will continue as planned. If these conditions are not fulfilled within a month, we will consider that Mr. Randi has withdrawn from the experiment. In any case, we will go ahead and complete the experiment without Mr. Randi, only with the help of sceptics Mr. Alec Gindis and Mr Hrasko Gabor who really care in seen this experiment finally completed

    You say “theory” like it is a bad thing. The term “theory” in the scientific context is quite different to the everyday meaning. You should look it up some time.

    I assume you were pissed when you typed all that. Try to be original otherwise you’ll sound like a dork.

    …and it’s “cite” theories. At least science is full of robust theories, whereas astrology has less than one.

    Ask a scientist – oh – that’s not reliable because each argues that they can/cannot make predictions. Check with a scientist how this might turn out. Oh hang on that’s not reliable because they argue what they can/cannot do as predictions. Find out how science works and site theories – astrology is the monkey on sciences back.

    No known law of physics is responsible for producing all the thoughts and emotions of human beings, and no known law of physics explains them. No known law of physics explains why you either **** or love, and no known law of physics will ever change that.

    A few options:
    Ask an astrologer – oh hang that’s not reliable because they argue they can/can’t do predictions.
    Get a hit man for Bill Gates then marry his widow. Check with an astrologer to see how this might turn out. Oh hang that’s not reliable because they argue they can/can’t do predictions.
    Find out how astrology works and make predictions on the stock market and lotto numbers and really clean up. Oh hang that’s not reliable because they argue they can/can’t do predictions.

    I was wondering if you ever considered changing the layout of your blog? Its very well written; I love what youve got to say. But maybe you could a little more in the way of content so people could connect with it better. Youve got an awful lot of text for only having one or two images. Maybe you could space it out better?

Just like a video or a picture or two to get people excited about what youve got to say. In my opinion, it would make your blog come to life a little bit.
