I predict that Godbody will post another absurd conspiracy thread.

Your talking about extraterrestrials here, all the "gods" were E.Ts "those from heaven to earth came" and we have been filming them. There here waiting for people to wake up.

Video games cause violence? Finally something I've researched more of haha. If you'd like to engage me in a debate over this Pulse I'll happily drive you into the ground.

Video games don't CAUSE violence

But let's say we take a group of 200 violent offenders

If significantly more than half of them played video games, it proves beyond a shadow of a doubt there's a correlation.

That doesn't mean CAUSATION... but it means there's a relationship between the two that deserves further investigation.

I loosely believe you can attribute video games to a percentage of violent crime. I just think there's things that work in tandem with video games like environment, financial situation, etc etc because a video game in and of itself shouldn't be the sole precursor to violent behavior. That wouldn't really make sense, would it? Because then you'd have to explain all the law abiding citizens that play GTA V and don't shoot shit up.


If you want to engage in a debate neither of us would win because we don't have sufficient data

I don't think this is accurate.

I don't think you know what a correlation is. Stay in school or go back to it.

I'm doing standard deviations, regression analysis, and all types of graphs/charts that deal in correlations currently for my master's degree. You're not telling me

Video games, and television, have no hand in the causation of violent crime.

You know why your analogy is bad? ...Because how are you choosing those prisoners? Where are those prisoners? Are they in Asia? Are you making sure you pick more asians than prisoners of any other race? People can't help their race. But they can help what types of media they choose to consume, and those forms of media, in TANDEM with other things, can shape one's behavior. This isn't something you can argue.

Correlation doesn't mean causation. Something you and Aggo don't understand.
It just implies a relationship, and any further hypothesis/assumptions need to be investigated.

We're talking about how external shit influences the internal. How external stimuli interact with/influence human psyche

Get your nonsensical bullshit out of here. You sound dumb.

Sounds like the stuff I did in my statistics 1 class in community college.

Aldi, by your definition there are infinite correlations so you've watered down your argument to nothing.

I don't remember saying anything about any of that. I was directly addressing this post from you and its incomplete logic. That's something with which you generally have a lot of trouble. Do you think you could take a brief moment away from your fantasy world to answer the question at the end of my last response? Please don't get angry. I never meant to hurt your feelings.
