... Neo-Darwinism works, Astrology doesn't.

I read the newest article on the TalkReason website about an Anti-evolution webpage. The webpage is maintaned by a group of Christians. They believe in their own astrology and Intelligent Design. I thought that Christianity is incompatible with Astrology. They really think that talent parents must have talent children if we the Neo-Darwinism works.

I quote some sentences from their webpages.

"Magi Astrology is so different from any other form of astrology that 95% of Magi Astrology contradicts other forms of astrology. The beauty of Magi Astrology is that it disproves Darwinism and proves Intelligent Design. Magi Astrology helps to move Intelligent Design to the very high level needed so that Intelligent Design can make accurate predictions about genetics, the weather, and other areas that presently baffle scientists."

"As we all know, scientists believe in the significance of genes. Genes are certainly important but here at the Magi Society, we think scientists have taken their fervor for genetics much too far when they assert that all of us are the product of our parents' genes. As astrologers, we believe we are more the result of our astrologically derived natal charts."

"The reason any parents can have fabulously talented children is that God designed it that way. God designed the world such that the alignment of the planets on a day someone is born helps the person to have certain talents and abilities. Some alignments of the planets are more helpful than others. (...) If Magi Astrology really works, then Darwinism does not work."

I suppose they confuse Neo-Darwinism with Lamarck's ideas.
