I deleted my earlier post because it wasn't a very productive post.
Further, I looked up the actual answer. Apparently I'm a gemini. I don't know what that means, though. I don't believe it means anything.

I mean like 10-15 pages got deleted though.

It means that you're a dubstep producer.

I'm fervently against horoscopes and all that birth-sign nonsense. Sure it's on the more harmless end of the whole hand-wavey psychic sham hogwash spectrum but it's still a system where people are allowed to make money by exploiting the credulity of others.
It's
not
cool.
Son I am dissapoint. As a good scientist you should take the stance of your intellectual ancestor Isaac Newton and be humble and open to mysteries of the world you have not studied and lack any insight into. Scepticism is good, fervent rejection of anything you deem unscientific is foolish and unworthy. I have studied astrology at depth for 15 years and I can say it is a deeply interesting subject.
Pisces, but I don't believe in all the hocus-pocus that goes with it.
Cancer, and neither.
you may not, but no doubt in the world that those young eyes are moon-child eyes.

#109- Are you a risk taker? In general, do you tend to play it safe, or take risks? Why, do you think?

Not really. Rejection of unscientific concepts has saved a lot of money, a lot of lives and lead to interesting research such as the Forer effect.
109. I suppose I'm avoidant. I read a conservative commentator that said the main difference between conservatives and progressives are that progressives do not want to take risks and want to minimise the costs involved with taking risks. Conservatives want to maximise gains from risks. In a zero sum game, that tends to produce non-Utilitarian results. One person can only be made so happy with ownership of lots of stuff. Many people can be significantly better off owning something rather than nothing.

I don't take a lot of risks but then go on to regret not being more risky. The risks I
do
go for usually backfire though.

I am a considered risk taker, ie I weigh up the pros and cons of taking certain risks before I take them. There's being bold, and then there's being stupid.
Sometimes I do things impulsively though, and funnily enough they usually end well.
I thought the question said "Are you a rice stalker?". I am.
If I'm risk taker or not I've never really thought about.
You say you've never had a job and rarely go outside, so I'd be inclined to think you aren't.

I'm afraid that the pointless non-disciplines that Newton wasted much of his life on were alchemy and theology, not astrology. Even in Newton's day scientists had largely spurned astrology and Newton was no different.
This isn't quite correct. It's true that the discipline fell into decline around the 1670s after having been very esteemed in the 1640s and 1650s, but you don't know Newton personal opinions about astrology.
The point isn't that astrology should be considered a science competitive with or similar to the natural sciences: it is, and probably will never become more than a pseudo-science practice with a strong "underground" following. The real point is that only foolish and dogmatic people make broad, sweeping statements about the world and what is possible. Believing that astrology is mere mumbo-jumbo is your choice, but blatantly stating so on forums as if it was irrevocable truth isn't gonna earn the praise of all of us.
