Why Prediction Apps & Reading Your Horoscope Is Bad For Christians by andivirus: 7:15am On Jul 16, 2017
The new wave on Facebook and Internet these days are Apps that Predict the Future. This week Israeli digital visionary Eyal Gever describes a machine that would give everyone a ‘Crystal Ball’. “My idea to change the world is a crystal ball app - a machine that would help us predict the future. If you dropped all of the world's data into a black box, it could become a crystal ball that would let you see the future. When knowledge becomes a network, all is possible.
Imagine what happens to knowledge when very smart algorithms that grasp humanity analyze that content and visualize the data. You could explore the past, present and prospective future of almost anything in a matter of seconds". Can you Imagine that?

Having a super tool that can help us understand relationships between entities and events over time, that can foresee what may happen in the future and advise us on taking the best decision - even test what would happen if you chose option A over option B.
As Macbeth asked the witches - If you can look into the seeds of time and say, which grain will grow, and which will not, speak then to me.”

How the Prediction Applications Work
There are lots of funny Applications that work by integrating your Facebook account. These applications collect sensitive information from your Facebook account like your Date of Birth, your List of Friends, your pattern of life, pattern of thought, what you love, your religion and belief system through your Facebook posts, pages you LIKE or FOLLOW on Facebook. By integrating these information, using the Zodiac Signs, Horoscope and Astrology prediction methods, they could therefore predict your future.

Some of the popular predictions they make centre on various areas of life questions like:
· For What You Will Be Always Remembered?
· Profession Suits You By Birth?
· See What Your Name Means
· Why People Likes You?
· What Kind Of Best Friend You Are?
· When And Why You Will Die?
· Why Are You Still Single?
· What Hidden Qualities Are In You?
· How Many Proposals You Will Get Soon?
· Who & Where You Will Meet Your True Love?
· Find When Will You Marry
· Your After Marriage Prediction
· How Many Babies You Will Have?

Why Reading Horoscope is Bad for You:
People who believe in star signs are more likely to be impulsive instead of virtuous. If the horoscope and prediction Apps are your favourite page in the newspaper or internet, then beware: The Zodiac is more than just a harmless pastime. People who follow their stars are more likely to abandon their commitments and be self-indulgent if they're predicted to have a bad day, a study found. It is because believers are convinced they cannot change their fate so get tempted to drop their plans, while people who don't set any store by their stars carry on as normal.....
