"Scientific explanations of things are not the ceiling. Science is wayy behind in terms of understanding nature, spirituality, and universe...but they are trying and are in tip of the iceberg"

--Haha! this might epitomize why we believe in all the things the original poster posted. The advancement science has made especially in regards to universe is the testament of human ingenuity and curiosity. Before dismissing it, you must be able to show what else explains the universe better than science. Palm readers? Astrologers?

One has to remember, just because something hasn't been explained, you cannot give it a supernatural connotation. Science is a self-regulating, self-correcting discipline. The very controversy that surrounds scientific issues is the fact that there is a continous discourse and experimentation. Indeed, science has just scratched the tip of the iceberg, that is why there is so much to learn!

Back to the original poster,
Horoscopes, palm readers, and all the con artists give you hope even if it is seemingly false. Hope is a very powerful weapon. :)
