Genetics is the modern day astrology. People are looking for "the" gene that causes this or that much as people were looking for the bad
alignment of the stars (a "dis-aster") in an earlier time. They found a pattern in a study of the stars about to the extent that we find such patterns today in genetics.

I disagree here. James, for an intelligent guy such as yourself, this
is shocking to me. There are hundreds of folks alive today because of
gene therapy, and last I heard over 70 diseases were under in vitro
study for gene therapy. That doesn't even count medications that turn
genes off and on. Astrology and Genetics are like apples and oranges
and your knowledge of modern genetics is antiquated if you think that
today's genetics is like yesterday's astrology.
