00:00For anybody who believes in astrology cannot be a rational person.
00:04Let there be a thesis.
00:06Let there be a set of propositions that are available to examination.
00:12Nobody will jail you for your beliefs.
00:14You want to believe in something and continue to believe in it.
00:17But don't term it as logical or rational or scientific.
00:21There is no logic. There is a story.
00:24You may love a story. Fine. That's your subjective choice.
00:27But don't call it a science. It's a story.
00:29And quite an entertaining story.
00:31Also quite profit yielding story.
00:33If I look at the size of the astrology industry today.
00:36And the number of astrology apps that are available on Play stores etc.
00:40So it's a story that is making big money for a lot of storytellers.
00:45Fine. It's between them and their clients.
00:48If the clients choose to pay just to hear stories, who am I to object?
