Why does Yahoo! file Horoscopes under "Entertainment & Music"?

NASA is full of astrologers and nobody labels them as entertainers or musicians. Seems like "Science & Mathematics" would be a more appropriate category.

1. NASA is full of astronomers NOT astrologers, you are full of crap.
2. Because horoscopes are for entertainment purposes.
3. ...shhhhh...dude. lissen up. us star-babies have left the unwelcoming cold confines of science and religious dogmas and we are relocating into all up-lifting and warming welcoming human creative gatherings. every body is groovy in the entertainment/music halls dude so have some popcorns and ice-tea dude... sit back and enjoy the show.
4. I know exactly how you feel and I agree!!! I read my horoscope every week!! and it comes true every week!! Horoscopes are fact and the are very rigidly and scientifically constructed to portray truth!! It's proven!!
5. Astrology could go aside of mythology and philosophy, if we stripped it down to a really useless knowledge base... However, "Horoscopes" might sound too caricatural, and as a domain of activity, might be way too much polluted by hot mamas to be taken seriously by those who lack of a sense of humor and humility.
6. Ive seen astrologers working at the observatory but those arent very good ones. Those are astrologers in training. I think the observatory is like their university. The really good ones set up their own shops all over the city and take Master Card for their private practices. One time I read my horoscope and I freaked out when it said I had some unfinished business I should take care of before its too late. I ran to the potty so fast, I almost pooped my pants.
7. I know...that kinda makes me uncomfortable.
8. Astrology is not a science, it is magical thinking. It has been tested and fails to do better than chance. Take a look in your bookstore and see if you can find astrology in the science section. there certainly is no science in the metaphysics section. Science need constant results in it's testing and the last thing astrology is constant. I do agree it should have a section for fortune telling and other paranormal things that only belief is required. No need for any proof.
9. Because they didn't have a "forensic science" category
10. What else can it be but entertainment.
11. Because astrology is entertainment.
