You keep coming back to this, but the thing is... the validity of astrology, in this thread, was not positioned as a belief. It was positioned as a conviction. I took issue with this, as did several others. We said, "No, you can't do that, and here are my arguments against astrology being accepted as a predictive system."

The manner in which some of us took issue may have gotten a little heated, yes. But it shouldn't be interpreted as an attack on someone's beliefs. It was a rebuttal to a weakly founded declaration.
