Good news for the rational and level-headed everywhere: just as you might have predicted, scientists have found astrology to be rubbish. Its central claim—that our human characteristics are molded by the influence of the sun, moon and planets at the time of our birth—appears to have been debunked once and for all and beyond doubt by the most thorough scientific study ever made into it. For several decades, researchers tracked more than 2,000 people—most of them born within minutes of each other. According to astrology, the subjects should have had very similar traits. The babies were originally recruited as part of a medical study begun in London in 1958 into how the circumstances of birth can affect future health. More than 2,000 babies born in early March that year were registered and their development monitored at regular intervals. Researchers looked at more than 100 different characteristics, including occupation, anxiety levels, marital status, aggressiveness, sociability, IQ levels and ability in art, sport, mathematics and reading—all of which astrologers claim can be gauged from birth charts. The scientists failed to find any evidence of similarities between the “time twins,” however. They reported in the current issue of the Journal of Consciousness Studies: “The test conditions could hardly have been more conducive to success, but the results are uniformly negative.” Analysis of the research was carried out by Geoffrey Dean, a scientist and former astrologer based in Perth, Australia, and Ivan Kelly, a psychologist at the University of Saskatchewan, Canada.
Reаd this pаssаge. Smallpоx is a highly cоntagiоus disease that kills about 30 percent of those infected. For centuries, it killed millions of people around the world. In just the 20th century, an estimated 300 million died from smallpox before it was finally halted in 1977. Two centuries before that last outbreak, the physician and scientist Edward Jenner (1749 – 1823) was born in Gloucestershire, England. His interest in the protective effects of cowpox began during his apprenticeship with George Harwicke in the 1760s. But it was not until 1796 that he made the first step in the long process whereby smallpox, the scourge of mankind, would be totally eradicated. For many years, he had heard the tales that dairymaids were protected from smallpox naturally after having suffered from cowpox. Pondering this, Jenner concluded that cowpox not only protected against smallpox but also could be transmitted from one person to another as a deliberate mechanism of protection. In May 1796, Edward Jenner found a young dairymaid, Sarah Nelms, who had fresh cowpox lesions on her hands and arms. On May 14, 1796, he took matter from Nelms’s lesions and inserted it into an incision on the arm of an 8-year-old boy, James Phipps. Subsequently, the boy developed a mild fever and discomfort in the armpit. Nine days after the procedure, he felt cold and lost his appetite, but by the next day he felt fine. In July 1796, Jenner infected the boy again, this time with matter from a fresh smallpox lesion. No disease developed, and Jenner concluded that the protection was complete. The passage contains an induction by confirmation, and this is premise 1 in the argument: [P1, hypothesis] The hypothesis is that cowpox protects a person against smallpox and that protection can be transferred from one person to another.
