I appreciate your points about religion; thank you for those even though we are arguing. It’s going to take some time to digest those so I don’t have anything productive to add, but I see your point and think there’s something of value to be gleaned there. However, I suspect that the most you’ll get out of me is not that I give pseudoscience a pass (I have far too much negative personal history with such charlatanism; astrology is close to the least of those bugbears, it’s just the one that comes up most often because it is the least niche), it’d be that I don’t give some religions a pass. As I understand your answer to the first question I asked, that will still upset you.

And on that note, gonna be real, the fact it bothers you that I criticized astrology specifically, your missing of the points about proportionality and scope, and your continued insistence that it is misogynistic of me to criticize astrology make me disinterested in trying to have a productive argument with you. I’m going to stop responding to you in this thread on this matter because if I wanted the thrill of a flamewar I’d just go to and spar with sshitlibss instead of comrades. I don’t fully understand how the disengage rule works, but since I’ve said a couple things in this comment, if you want to respond or rebut, I support you responding to this comment with any final jabs you want to get in. I can’t promise that I’ll read them and I def won’t respond since I’m already riled up, but onlookers can, and I do not think it would be fair for me to get in the last word while also calling for disengagement and stopping you from getting to say your piece.

Even though I am ending this exchange in a pretty brash manner I don’t mean it with a ton of fire or vitriol toward you specifically. Peace
