I have a friend who is a psychology professor who likes Nader's ideas. I think Nader is mapping traditional planetary influences to known areas of the brain that supposedly control those influences. Of course the jury is out on astrology because scientists are terrified that if it is thoroughly research it may well have some value. I wouldn't worry much about opinions here though. I often sit with people who think astrology is bunk and with people (with science backgrounds) who think it has some merit. Line on water.

Um, why would a scientist be terrified that astrology has some merit?

Because they fear being discredited.


I think there have been many thorough tests into it and they obviously drew a blank or it would be part of the mainstream. That's how it works.

"I think" doesn't cut it. There haven't been thorough tests. For one thing you have to know astrology to put together a proper test. Most researchers don't know astrology or enough about it to do a proper test. Then there needs to be funding.


The main thing that's really stupid about King Tony's ideas about astrology and the brain is that he only uses the planets visible to the naked eye. If you get a bit objective about it you'll realise that's as good a disproof as you'll need to treat the rest of it with immense suspicion. If the guys research standards are so low.....


For one thing the planets visible to the naked eye have centuries of observation. The outer planets don't and may not have that much influence. Some of these were discovered when perturbations in Saturn's orbit were noted that couldn't be attributed just to Jupiter.

Western astrologers speculate up what they think Uranus, Neptune and Pluto do. We live in a sea orchestrated by planetary influences which we humans are subservient to even if they are subtle and not readily apparent. They are more like weather changes.

MJ,

We're more interested in what you personally think of Nader's ideas. If you disagree, specifically state why.

Here's an interesting lecture Dr. Tony Nader delivered at Stanford University. He explained what happened before the Big Bang and why it occurred.
