2. Generally speaking, the changing opinions of experts makes me trust them more, not less.
3. Not really. While scientific consensus is important, differing views and peer review are what provide for (in large part) the advancing of human knowledge.
4. Yes. Most experts in astrology agree with each other, but I'm still skeptical of astrology.
