It would amuse me if there was a sizable population that thought astrology was scientific and rejected it on that basis because they don’t trust science.
This is actually similar to the medieval Catholic church’s position on astrology, at least if you understand “scientific” to mean “what passed for scientific during the middle ages”.
What evidence are you aware of that the Church condemned those particular propositions for being “science” (natural philosophy), rather than for being “errors” (falsehoods)?

My point was that the church considered the evidence for the propositions suspect since it was merely “science” (natural philosophy).
