Isn't it amazing what we can do and say using statistics meant to clarify our world? If we add another test to his list of four . . . let's see . . . Maybe "God is dead." Then the probability of all five statements being true becomes only 17%. Let's think up another one . . . hmmmmmm . . . "Global climate change is affecting the polar regions more than equatorial." Then the probability that all are right becomes only 12%. Another? "Coastal areas will be more affected by sea level rise than will mountain ranges." That reduces the probability of all being right to 8%. What a tool! My eyes are opened!
