> It's really frustrating how some people can go from completely rational on something like astrology, to completely irrational when it comes to religion, when they are basically the same thing.

Or perhaps consider the possibility that it's a shortcoming of your understanding.

How do you choose to order your life? It's not a scientific question.

Where's the shortcoming? When someone talks about astrology as b.s. because, hey, we have science to show as much, then they go and talk about virgin births and resurrections and holy books that are pure revelation of the word of god, etc, they're being hypocritical in so far as appealing to science as a guiding principle in the search for truth.

No, it's a philosophical one. But religion is more than philosophy.
