"They" can prove anything with statistics, and frequently do. The Cannabis\schitzophrenia link (noted previously) is the most classic example - deducing causality from coincidence. Its what the philosophy trade call a syllogism:
All terriers are dogs.
All terriers are mammals.
Therefore, All mammals are dogs.
Both propositions are true, but the conclusion is false.

So explain why, when there's a huge shipment of cannabis, there's a rise in the number of people presenting with schizophrenic symptoms? Or why every schizophrenic patient I have seen has used or is using heavy amounts of cannabis? There's a causal-effect relationship with most things. What we don't understand is the mechanism by which the relationship exists. _________________ He fights for the users.

But that is incorrect cumulative logic The conclusion is false because none of it is previously established. All terriers are dogs, and all terriers are mammals so all terriers are mammals_________________TwitterCharlie Brooker: Macs are glorified Fisher-Price activity centres for adults; computers for scaredy cats too nervous to learn how proper computers work; computers for people who earnestly believe in feng shui.

Surely the correct thing to say is:
All terriors are dogs.
All dogs are mammals.
Thus all terriors are mammals.

Same here. I prefer it over all other flavours. Though if I have a Baskin Robbins then I might try a combo.  _________________Do concentrate, 007... "You are gifted. Mine is bordering on seven seconds." https://www.dropbox.com/referrals/NTg5MzczNTkhttp://astore.amazon.co.uk/wwwx404couk-21
