How mature are the means to trace evidences? We live in a 4 dimensional world. And that quote is not to be applied only and only in the situation you mentioned. If otherwise be the case, such wise words would lose significant. And thats is the tragedy of India. We fail to draw the line between superstition and different form of knowledge, astrology in this case. We will embrace it if west validates it. 1000 years of slavery has put us through genetic mutation. Its happening all over India. And we will stop only and only when we become a carbon copy of the west. Sanskrit died. Which otherwise could have been the best language for object based programming. Alas. Haven't learnt anything, wont learn anything.
