Daily Nudge by Karl Faase
Believing the Star Signs.
Today, like every other day, millions of people will turn to the astrology pages of papers, magazines and websites to see what their star sign tells them about their prospects. They are convinced that their date of birth has influenced their personality and their future.
A study carried out by universities in Germany and Denmark looked at 15,000 people and found no evidence to support a link between personality, intelligence and birth dates. It seems that checking our star signs in the paper is more about entertainment than useful information.
There are many who want to put Christian faith and star signs in the same category. They think that none of it can be believed; it's all about superstition. So is there a difference?
I believe there is a spiritual side to life and that belief in Jesus is completely different from star signs. Jesus was a real person whose life, words and actions are recorded in history for us. Christian faith, unlike the stars, is not based on wishful thinking but on human history and dependable experience.
My thanks to Karl Faase and Olive Tree Media.
It’s quite shock for me that the study pointed there is no evidence between star sign and personality. Cuz I am quite in to it, even though as a Christian I should not do this. Every now and then, I will be stumbled by stat sign if I meet some difficulties, or I’m eager to know some results, This article is a notice for me that I should practice more to have faith in God
