quote: (post ) Originally posted by inimalist how are astrological ages not based on a subjective belief as the birth of Christ? Maybe religion was the wrong thing to allude to, but it is just as supernatural and spiritual.
quote: (post ) Originally posted by inimalist Taurus is a star sign. It means nothing except that people saw starts (which might not be close to each other in any respect aside from the 2d representation as seen from Earth) and were able to interpret pictures.
quote: (post ) Originally posted by inimalist "Taurus" coming of age is no more or less important than the movement of 2d star formations which we do not have a name for. Its an entirely anthropic construct related to pre-civilization beliefs about what stars were.
