It seems that James Cameron has found Jesus’s magical tomb. In this particular tomb, rules of statistics, logic, and the facts of history don’t apply! The post here has prettymuch everything covered. Particularly, look at this comment, which is exactly the post that I wanted to write about the flawed statistics of this ‘discovery.’ If I lived in the magical Jesus tomb, I could probably claim that Jay the Evil Post Thief traveled to an alternate dimension in which I had not been too lazy to dig out my stats book and work out the numbers myself, stole the post that I wrote, and posted it as a comment. Unfortunately, I live in the real world, and don’t have a multi-millionaire backing my kooky theories.
I really wonder… how convincing will the public find this argument? The only statistics class I took was a 100-level “Intro to Stats for the Social Sciences” class in college, taught by an odd man with what appeared to be an entire goat glued to his chin. All the same, I could see immediately the flaws in the figuring, and was giggling over the press release. We shall see, I suppose.
