Geomancy / Fengshui: Science, Superstition or Religion?

A heated debate that I had with a fren some time back. He said that geomancy is groundless (without proof) and just another thing like religion or superstition, a self-fulfilling prophecy…..*blah…blah*

I am not 100% into geomancy or fengshui or *blah blah*. Like science, there are so many things that cannot be explained but science will try and undercover the underlying reasoning behind each and every details. Who are we to judge? Science is about trial and test...likewise for fengshui.

Like religion or superstition, each and every religious people will stand by their belief and the incident for their GOD exists but who can prove that. Who can we asked? Is the history as so-called correct?

Not all fengshui books will try to explain why you need to perform this action or that.… probably some are common sense answers… some are proven results from Ancient Chinese but it is simply not recognized by science as PROVEN or science is NOT ADVANCED to prove it.

Quoted from Raymond Lo’s Feng Shui & Destiny for Managers, on Stephen Hawking’s essay “Is Everything Determined?” concluded that everything is governed by the set of physical rules of the universe. It is just impossible to know the rules because the equation might be too COMPLEX.

Geomancy could be a topic of science that ancient Chinese has managed to prove but it’s just not compiled due to it’s history…
