Fester I see you're still equating evolution with astrology.

You have such a way of presenting things that justify some people's erroneous preconceptions that it's amazing.

Anyway, the concept that one's birthday is related to their personality or "luck" is just ridiculous. The evidence of fraternal twins should easily demonstrate the falicy of astrology.

Science in no way supports astrology. Why you equate the two is a mystery. Except that it is a handy rhetorical tool for you to bash your demon, evolution, without any real argument in hand.

When reaching for dung to fling, any old dung will do.

. . . I see you're still equating evolution with astrology.

"Evolutionism" is the word I have been using. By that I mean the notion that all life is derivative of a common ancestor. I do NOT equate it with astrology in terms of certitude, but consider it to be similar because it takes inferences and declares them with certitude. At least astrology deals with a body of evidence currently operative and does not make claims about billions of years of unobserved, unrecorded history.

It appears to me because he really doesn't understand the difference.

Precisely
