I know of no saved Christian that does.

Surely that's an artifact of you not believing that Christians who believe in astrology are saved?

There may be some.
I just do not know of any personally.

Since i wasn't asking for a rule of thumb, I have to interpret that as an admission that it doesn't matter how high the stakes are if you don't think something is true, you won't believe it.

The agnostic or atheist has nothing to fear unless the claim is true. Without a good reason to think the claim is true, it doesn't matter how high the stakes are. Same reason I don't send money to Nigerian princes.

Most are just a brush off or more of the same question.

I wish I could do more, but time does not permit it.

No worries. We know you're outnumbered here. It helps to focus on the questions you consider most challenging.

Thanks for the advice.
