| -8 | CDC stats about rape in the last 12 monthsThe logical extension of "any conclusion ... can be reached" is that no conclusion can ever be trusted and therefore no conclusion can be reached. No, any conclusion can be reached measn any conclusion can be reached. This can be done in any field, including theoretical physics. If a field of study has no hypotheses that can be tested, then yes, it is not a science. As far as I know, we know of no way to test string theory. So for the time being, string theory is more mathematics than science. H… | /r/MensRights | 04/05/12 05:00 AM |
| -3 | CDC stats about rape in the last 12 monthsSo are you saying the people who say that 1 in 6, 1 in 5, and 1 in 4 women will be raped in their lifetime shouldn't because those stats were probably 'made up'? No it depends on what you mean by rape and what range of data you use. Rape rates are not a law of nature and it's not like every rape is reported. Also, you can use rape statistics to advance whatever your agenda is. If you are a rape counselor or make a living off of rape victims, you want rape to be as expanded as possible. If you ar… | /r/MensRights | 04/05/12 04:23 AM |
| -7 | CDC stats about rape in the last 12 monthsYour argument (feel free to correct me) is that because (and I'm going to emphasize some things here) statistics can be used incorrectly to imply "proof" of anything that no conclusions can EVER be reached on social issues. No moron, my argument isn't that NO conclusions can ever be reached. My argument is that any conclusion that you wish to show can be reached. That's how statistics in economics/social issues work. You want to show a conclusion, you find data to back your conclusion. There rea… | /r/MensRights | 04/05/12 03:27 AM |
| -13 | CDC stats about rape in the last 12 monthsFallacy of Gray What a fucking moron. Do you know what a gray fallacy is? Show me where the gray fallacy is. Point IT OUT moron. The CDC does not equal a random blog post. Where did I say the CDC = random blog post? Do you know what kind of fallacy this is? Not all studies are equally as valid or invalid. Never said all studies are equally valid or invalid. Never mentioned studies. I said statistics can be used to prove anything moron. How would we ever come to any conclusions on social issues? … | /r/MensRights | 04/05/12 02:22 AM |
| -15 | CDC stats about rape in the last 12 monthsSo my point, is that there are too many misguided people such as yourself who was severely let down in the statistics classes that don't know how to properly read stats. Oh shut the fuck up you worthless fucking filth. Anyone who's taken any statistics knows that statistics on social/human issues can be manipulated in every fucking way. Statistics can be used to prove almost ANYTHING concerning people and society to further any agenda. We are not talking about statistics used to study natural ph… | /r/MensRights | 04/05/12 12:35 AM |
