It's foolish to equate "signs in the heavens" with astrology.

Please explain signs for what then?

As to predestination, you do understand such a thing would negate free will? It would be like little boys playing with action figures (we being the action figures). If we were created to do or not do the actions/feelings we do, then what is there to be wrathful of?

A side question please. Do you believe the bible to be the infallible word of God, to be taken literally?
