But astrology isn't the study of stars, that's astronomy. Big fucking difference. Astrology is the study of bullshit, where you say the stars are aligned in a certain way, but no astrologists look at them anyways, cus what can stars tell besides their life-span...

Meteorologists have a bullshit profession.

"I can be wrong 60% of the time, and people will continually watch me! WEEEEEEE"

Not that weather prediction is an exact science, but I've given up on expecting weathermen to be remotely accurate.

You can't compare countries directly like that.
It doesn't work.

Lebanon and the US both have a statistic from how many under 13 y/o ppl die, but that says exactly nothing about WHY they die.

So if you go "oh man lebanon many not-dying kids with so little cost, great systems let's copy it", the result is that a shitton MORE people start dying on top of what's already happening.

Well it is the law and has been for a few years and looks like it'll continue to be the law from here on out, so clearly there's some portion of the population that likes it. The question is how large that portion is. The larger it is, the more likely you're looking at a few loud radicals.

? Meterologists are pretty accurate these days

limitations are on the amount of data and computing power we have for generating more accurate models, its not an inherent characteristic of the profession as being bullshit

sure predicting the weather a month fro now is probably useless but 1 day in advance is accurate enough for most practical purposes...

Yeah, now you're following. It's a job where your decision making might as well be determined by brownian motion or something for all the good it does long term.

by your logic everyone trying to be a writer/artist/singer is also going into a bullshit profession
