The Cosmic Clocks Quotes

“A prestigious astronomical society, the Astronomische Gesellschaft, came out a few years ago with the following verdict:

The belief that the position of the stars at birth influences the future of the newborn, and that one can find advice in private and public matters in the stars, rests on a view of the universe which places the earth and its inhabitants at the hub of the universe.

This conception has been refuted a long time ago. What are today called astrology, cosmology, and so on, are nothing but a mixture of superstition, fakery, and exploitation.”

The Cosmic Clocks

“Every effort made by astrologers to defend their basic postulate, that the movement of the stars can predict destiny, has failed.

Whenever such predictions are examined by impartial scientific committees, the supposed accuracy that astrology claims soon evaporates.

Statistics have disposed of old arguments once and for all: the numbers speak without bias, and they leave no room for doubt. Whoever claims to predict the future by consulting the stars is fooling either himself or someone else.”

The Cosmic Clocks

“Modern astrology, as a predictive method, relies on the survival of a hopelessly outdated view of the world and of life.

It ignores the progress of astronomy and of human biology, as well as all the variables that affect behavior through a lifetime.”

“A man is allowed to visit Heaven and Hell. In Hell, he sees a large gathering of people sitting around a long table set with rich and delectable food. And yet these people are miserable and starving. He soon discovers that the reason for their dreadful state is that the spoons and forks provided for them are longer than their arms. As a result, they are unable to bring the food to their mouths and feed themselves. Then the man is shown Heaven. He finds the same table set out there, with the same extra-long eating utensils. But, in Heaven, instead of just trying to feed their own selves, each person uses his or her spoon and fork to feed one another. They are all well-fed and happy.”
