# Actual Freedom – Definitions

# Definitions ## Epidemiology Epidemiology: epidemiological assessments (...) are not scientific: • The cardinal rule of epidemiology, albeit observed more in the breach than the observation these days, is that correlation does *not* equal causation ... whereas science is all about causation (cause and effect). •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• Epidemiological Assessments: Mr. Nimmo Smith, a Scottish Judge, had the following to say (in a 1,121 page/350,000 word/15 month deliberation): • ‘Epidemiology cannot be used to establish causation in any individual case and the use of statistics applicable to the general population to determine the likelihood of causation in an individual is fallacious’. (from paragraph 9.10; 2005, CSOH 69; Outer House, Court Of Session, Scotland). He also made this point: • ‘It must be emphasized that our system is evidence-based. My duty as a fact-finder is exactly the same as that of a jury, who in terms of their oath are bound to ‘give a true verdict according to the evidence’. (from paragraph 1.10; [2005] CSOH 69; Outer House, Court Of Session, Scotland). RETURN TO DEFINITIONS INDEX RICHARD’S HOME PAGE The Third Alternative (Peace On Earth In This Life Time As This Flesh And Blood Body) Here is an actual freedom from the Human Condition, surpassing Spiritual Enlightenment and any other Altered State Of Consciousness, and challenging all philosophy, psychiatry, metaphysics (including quantum physics with its mystic cosmogony), anthropology, sociology ... and any religion along with its paranormal theology. Discarding all of the beliefs that have held humankind in thralldom for aeons, the way has now been discovered that cuts through the ‘Tried and True’ and enables anyone to be, for the first time, a fully free and autonomous individual living in utter peace and tranquillity, beholden to no-one.
