Astrology challange.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Confirmation_bias

Confirmation bias (also called confirmatory bias or myside bias) is a tendency of people to favor information that confirms their beliefs or hypotheses.[Note 1][1] People display this bias when they gather or remember information selectively, or when they interpret it in a biased way. The effect is stronger for emotionally charged issues and for deeply entrenched beliefs. For example, in reading about current political issues, people usually prefer sources that affirm their existing attitudes. They also tend to interpret ambiguous evidence as supporting their existing position. Biased search, interpretation and memory have been invoked to explain attitude polarization (when a disagreement becomes more extreme even though the different parties are exposed to the same evidence), belief perseverance (when beliefs persist after the evidence for them is shown to be false), the irrational primacy effect (a greater reliance on information encountered early in a series) and illusory correlation (when people falsely perceive an association between two events or situations).

Astrology. Thanks ill fix it.
Astrology was 99% right when I found what it says about my character.

Did you know that the word "gullible" can't be found in any dictionary? It's true!

What are you afraid of?
In one hour in city, especially in large one many children are born.

Astrology uses broad and general terms to outline personalities, which allows a person to insert himself or herself into the profile, and to shape it to fit. I don't know if it's true or apocryphal, but there's the old story about the teacher who handed out astrological profiles to his class, telling them that each was receiving a profile based on his or her birth sign. He asked them if the profile was accurate; nearly every student agreed that it was. He then asked the students to exchange their profile with that of another student and read it. It was at this point that the students became aware that they'd each received the exact same profile.

You know, some of us are actually fully aware of our characters and personality without ambiguous mumbo jumbo.

And yeah, not gonna give my birth facts, since there was only one other child born the same day as me in the same town.

Tonus, the Bullshit! episode Insanity x posted addresses the Barnum (Forer) Effect, which is basically what I think you're talking about. It's a great episode debunking astrology.

First test, then results, verdict.

[Kayenneh]
