why do people who are christians answer question regarding horoscopes?

Because many of my fellow christians forgot that one of the fine gifts that god gave us was free will. Some people feel the need to control the actions of others to reinforce, measure or justify their spiritual relationships.  Being a "good christian" does not mean making people feel badly or like they are a lesser being. \n\nThey dont realize that people will come to love and worship god on their own accord, making them feel guilty or condesend to them will only push them further away. Besides, astrology was around long before Christianity became an organized religion.\n\nI agree that if someone wanted a Christian sermon, they would have asked for a Christian outlook.

Because many of them are giant hipocrites.  It's the only day of the year that they consider themselves Christians and they "need" the hoopla to get into the "spirit".  The spirit of what?? Trading gifts with everyone and asking for new games?  That's the spirit?  I think not.   Honest Christians find the commercialism of Christmas sickening and it gets worse every year.  Ironically, all these once a year, self-appointed "Christians," will be the first to mock a believer and ridicule us for practicing our faith all throughout the year.  I stay away from the pomp and circumstance of the season and focus on what the event is really about, commemorating the birth of our Savior.

Some Christians do...it's the hardcore ones that are not willing to believe in anything except that which they believe gives glory to god...not all Christians are that hardcore...what the hardcore Christians are asking for is eminently impractical and chaotic...I think they are mostly after your hard earned...some people who would call themselves christian have more open minds...I don't think the founders of these religions wanted anyone to be miserable and look at life so two dimensionally...

Cause non-believers want to "show" believers how "false" their faith is. It's an anarchial type of trash maybe. HEY at least we have something to live for...as well as someone to live for.\n\nOR MAYBE just MAYBE...they realize you need to have faith in someone, specifically a higher being because man needs God. Jer. 10:23

Horoscopes are a fantasy that means nothing. They cannot predict the future, they cannot say anything about your personality. No studies of astrology have demonstrated any truth in it at all. Sorry to burst your bubble. You're better of using your time to study things that are real.

Because sometimes to ask a question you have to have both sides of the story. Its not much use to you if you only value the opinions of the Christians and dont take into account those of other religions or non-believers. You may not agree with us, many dont but still there are 2 sides to every coin.  \n\nFor me, its becasue I want to understand your opinions and learn about other peoples faiths. Im living in a country which is multi cultural and I dont think it would be very prudent of me to make assumptions on other peoples faith or culture without first learning or understanding it. Im here to give (or at least try to) an answer to a question and an opinion that would not offend but to provoke thought without trying to convince you that your are wrong. Who knows maybe you are right that there is a God or maybe Im right that there isnt, regardless learning is the key.

The same reason people who say they believe in god without a doubt obsessively come up with an answer for every question. Because they are mostly trying to convince themselves.

I believe in the zodiac signs and their meanings as far as every person that falls up under his/her sign. I don't read my horoscope much, but I do study about the different signs. I think the zodiac sign meanings are right on point. You will probably have some people make comments like it's all a bunch of crap, but it's funny that these same people that don't believe in this stuff are always in the horoscopes section all the time. If a person doesn't believe in this stuff it's kind of stupid to be here looking and posting all the time right???

MOST people don't, since MOST people are not Christian, and don't have a clue as to what the question even means. Within Christianity MOST people don't believe that. Where did you get such a weird idea?

One of my friends who is a  writer  was hired to write horoscopes although she knows nothing about it. It's a low paying freelance job that writers do when they are having a difficult time getting decent work. So much for their reliability.

I am thinking that it may be because most users on the site are Christian, and Hindu questions aren't as "popular."  So maybe people just go with the flow.  I am a Hindu but I do ask many Christian questions just because I figure most people here are Christian, and if I ask them a question, then I get to hear their insights.  I like hearing from people of all different backgrounds and religious convictions.

I really hope you are asking this because of genuine desire to know the answer. Here is my opinion.\nI am a Christian. I love God, Jesus, etc. I pray all day and try to be a compassionate and caring person. However, I do not, condemn people for disagreeing with my belief.\nI embrace my imperfection knowing I, like every other person on the planet, make mistakes. Plenty of them.When someone asks me a question or advice, I offer heartfelt council and advice HUMAN TO HUMAN.\n\n  What I have noticed in life and on this Yahoo thing is that there are a lot of self-ritous (sp?). Read a few of the posts above. Some ignoramous wrote that Christians are not self-ritous, they just know right from wrong. That statement is the definition of self-ritous. (sorry for the spelling) Over and over I see these so-called Christians Judging people so harshly. I dont remember our savior behaving like that.\nOver and over, I see these quotes from the bible.\nQuotes about the wrath of God against these people asking simple questions. That is not only  Not Christian behavior, it is just plain rude.\n My mom says "it's not what you say, it's how you saw it."\nIf you don't agree with someone, maybe you could say something compassionate and from the heart rather than tell the person how vile and disgusting you and the Lord think they are. Maybe telling a berson they will burn with the devil isn't very Christian.\n  To be Christian is supposed to mean "Christ-like" from what I was lead to believe. I don't remember the parts of the Bible where Jesus insulted people and told them they are going to burn. Even if he did, I'm sure he did it in a kind and caring way. Not mean and judgemental.\n\nWhen Muslim's act like that and pull the "you are wrong, our God is the right God" thing, we call them Terrorists.\nWe  Christians need to remember that.\n\n I am interested in many religions because we all have a lot to learn from eachother. And respect that others believe differently than we do. They are not wrong or stupid or have less faith than a Christian. Just be a little nicer.

I believe it is human nature to assume that someone who defies what you believe in, doesn't know what they're talking about. That doesn't make this assumption true however. I am a Christian and I know there are many people out there that are well versed in Christianity, even if they do not share the belief. Some of them probably even know more about it than I do. I know about other religions as well. I think it is important to know about and the different faiths and non-faiths of the world.

Some people that are into astrology believe that.  I'm a Pisces too and I've always wondered about that since we are supposedly in our last "life".  I've always assumed it's a way to explain the different personality traits of each sign and how each one is a stage that a person has to go through.  It goes along with the fact that Pisces people are supposedly so mystical and 'other worldly' since they are more ready to travel on to another plane of existance.  I think it's interesting although it's probably a load of crap.

I think horoscope is a guide. Our choices and their consequences keep changing the reality we experience, in effect we can create a comedy or a tragedy  we are writing the script of  our life.  We can use our Free Will to create opportunity and felicity.  When we learn to make choices which keep us in tune with the spiritual laws of the Universe, we will receive happiness, and horoscope can help us to make that kind of choise.\n\n:))\nhttp://astrology.notiemail.com/default.asp?leng=en

Astrology is not a Science and is only a sham that feeds on the incredulity of people who are not confident enough of themselves.\n\nHistory repeats because mankind refuses to learn from its mistakes because they are glossed over since they otherwise would affect the "morale" of a nation.

Horoscope and astrology are wonderful sciences. I have read, it is very much possible to predict accurately using those sciences. The problem is finding the person, who has mastered those sciences. I feel, there are very few people in this world, who have mastered those sciences.\n\nIf you believe in astrology, then you might know that the destiny of your life is pre-determined. Then, why you want to know your destiny. Just live each moment filled with peace, love and joy. Wish you a happy and healthy life.
