Correlation Does Not Prove Causation
December 29, 2012
This showed up in my FB news feed a couple / few days ago - long enough that I don't remember who posted it (and I'm not going to take the time to scroll back that far). Because of it's length, 26:57, it took me awhile to get around to watching it. It was worth doing so and I recommend it for those interested in the current arguments around gun control. This is the first time I've heard of "Freedomain Radio, The Largest Philosophy Conversation in the World" or Stefan Molyneux. I was thankful that he mentions early in his presentation that 'correlation does not prove causation', a well-known fact and issue among statisticians and a flaw in many of the popular gun control arguments.
