False Causality
False Causality (commonly known as simply Causality) is a pseudoscientific idea that events in the past "cause" events in the future in a linear manner. Although there is no credible evidence for it, and it has been conclusively discredited by many experts including Dr. Beef Supreme, it remains a common delusion.
Claims of Proponents
Deniers of real causality claim that time and causality are linked and deny the existence of hyperreality. According to proponents, all events must take the form of Apast → Bfuture despite the fact that they are unable to reproduce this in the present.
Refutation
False causality can easily be disproved by simply observing the fact that that everything that happens happens in the present, including the past and the future. No example of the past that does not happen in the present has ever been produced, therefore, by induction, the past is dependent on the present. Additionally, since the present can contain pasts that have not yet have happened, while the past cannot contain the present, we can conclude that Present ⊃ Past, and so by reverse pigeonhole principle we can conclude that the past may not strictly caused the present else there would not be enough past to create the present which is larger than the past and Apast → Bfuture cannot hold.
