"Astrology would be considered a scientific theory if judged by the same criteria used by a well-known advocate of Intelligent Design to justify his claim that ID is science, a landmark US trial heard on Tuesday."

Actually, astrology is much more of a theory than ID; at least astrologers actually calculate something real, even if their conclusions are as laughable as those of the IDers.

At least it's testible.

It fails utterly, but at least you can test it.

 

[Quid]

So... ID is as credible as astrology then? Righto. I'm willing to live with that.

 

[Barbarian]

Almost as credible as astrology. There's much less dependence on miracles in astrology.
