time_twins ????????????? Hulk Hogan and Jerry falwell were born on the same day, which, Astrologically speaking, should make them pretty similar. In fact, they are "time twins" by the reasoning of the website from which I copied the following analysis. Read the "amazing similarities" between the two and tell me that it's not fabricated bullshit: "Both born on August 11th, Falwell in 1933, Hogan in 1953, each have received cheers and jeers from large audiences, one in wrestling matches, the other in the religious/political arena. "These two Southern boys wanted to be baseball stars but struck out. Both lifted weights to build up muscle: Hogan used his in the wrestling ring; Falwell wrestled with Satan and American morals--as a preacher, he developed his political muscle, backed by the Moral Majority. Both are flag-wavers--while Hogan has worn the label 'American Made' printed across his broad chest; Falwell has influenced American politics, pushing for strong national defense. Both became larger-than-life superstars: "Hogan at 6'8" with 24" biceps wrestled his way into extensive TV coverage plus a televised cartoon series and a commercialized Hulkamania. Falwell, not as big physically, muscled his way into superstardom as a controversial televangelist. The hulking wrestler wears as pure a facade as the preacher; he neither smokes nor drinks and counsels his cartoon-watching audience to "say their prayers." "Both were so-called "bad guys" before they became All-American hero types. Hogan used to wrestle as a 'villian' under another name; Falwell claims he was a cruel prankster, petty thief, and teen-age gang member before he was 'born again.'" Utter bullshit, right? These similarities are EXTREMELY weak. And the many and profound differences between Hogan and Falwell certainly eclipse any tenuous bonds these men may share. But I guess you could argue that these men weren't true "time twins" in order to maintain your hard-fought delusions regarding the truth of Astrology. (They weren't born in the same year, they weren't born at the same time of day, etc.) So if any pro-Astrology person has a CREDIBLE account of true "time twins", I'd like to see it. But even if a single account DID exist, it still wouldn't be enough to "prove" Astrology in general or "twin twins" in particular. In fact, it's almost a statistical certainty that, given the amount of people born (at almost exactly the same time) you COULD find a pair with extremely similar personalities/lives. But that's not enough. Striking similarities would have to be found in EVERY instance of "time twins" to even come close to "proving" the concept's validity. Conversely, a single counter-example would disprove the concept. In other words, if you find two people born at the same moment and show that they're different, you disprove Astrology altogether. Either way, Hogan and Falwell are not even close to being similar, and my guess is that this is because Astrology is for_entertainment_purposes_only. 021028 what's it to you? who go blather from
