Metaphysics are fun, kids!
Hanging around paranormal boards and such I always find it amusing when the believer and the skeptic meet. And at the Ghost Village boards, we have such a meeting. Someone posts to the aptly named 'skeptics' section about whether or not astrology is real. And here we have Moon Child who believes that there's something to this astrology stuff, and Gregory who thinks it's bunk. The wank begins here. The argument soon descends into a scientific debate that one might just well need a physics degree to understand. Comes complete with moderator "play nice" comments and a possible sockpuppet appearance by a random guest.
My favorite quotes:
I'm sorry, but I have no idea what point you're trying to get across. Please choose another metaphore.
You have pointed out what you wanted to point out, that means, your focus is on rebuffing my words. IS there anything you have to say about Birds depending on the GeoMagnetic fields? *blinks* To me, this is akin to shouting about the air speed velocity of a sparrow. Took most of my will power not to post "African or european birds?"
And of course, I HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO TIME FOR AN ARGUMENT! posts the girl that's been wanking for five pages.
