This book maybe short but its to the point in explaining (if anyone can get any sort of decent handle on what Astrology really is about) what Astrology is and why it is wrong for people who believe in God to go along with its beliefs.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not a Single Intelligent Fact. Just Christians bashing Astrology, April 27, 2008

This review is from: The Facts on Astrology (The Facts On Series) (Paperback)

Doesn't even deserve one star but this rating system won't allow a no-star rating.
This is just another book by well-meaning but small minds that do NOT have the perception or intelligence to see or think clearly enough to understand Astrology. The church condemned Astrology hundreds of years ago simply because Astrology can predict better than any of the priests. Whenever an Astrologer sees the future more accurately than a priest, the masses become attracted to Astrology and the church feels threatened. If an Astrologer can predict better than a priest, then it is reasonable to assume he has a superior connection to God. The book is just a combination of religious politics and spiritual blindness (of how this creation really works). After all, it was the Three Magi (read astrologers) who foretold the birth of Christ from an unusual star appearing in the eastern sky (pure Astrology).
