My opinion.......

Many 'professional' statisticians are not interested in showing what is true......
......so much......as analysing facts....
.....in such a way, as to misrepresent those facts.

Half, quarter, infinitesimal, truths.

There are lies,
there are damned lies,
and there are 'professional' statisticians.

No ?

If a person is a thief, or a murderer, .......he/she is a criminal.

And not a 'good' citizen.

Truth.

.

Matthew 6:33
.....seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness.....

and....

Matthew 19:17
[Jesus said].....if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments.
18 He saith unto him, Which?
Jesus said,
Thou shalt do no murder,
Thou shalt not commit adultery,
Thou shalt not steal,
Thou shalt not bear false witness,
19 Honour thy father and thy mother: and,
Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

You need only look at the 'gender wage gap' insanity to know how they use figures to tell lies to you and themselves.... and yet they sleep with a clear conscience.... any lie will do as long as it advances the Agenda/Cause.

This is madness through and through, and the electorate is the only hope of stopping it - the only hope lies with the proles - and still they sleep on.
