You wouldn't be the first ex-dem-mom to argue against the immutable laws of logic...
The thing about correlation is that most people do not understand the concept. They believe that correlation between A and B always means that A caused B. Or they hear the phrase that "correlation is not causation" and then believe that A never causes B. The reality is far more complicated.
In the research world, where I live, finding a correlation can be a clue that A does cause B, and that is a rationale for doing more research to find the cause. A correlation can be completely random, it can mean that A and B have a common cause, or it can mean that A caused B.
If I throw nails in the road, and five cars that drive by on that road get flat tires the same day, I will not get very far telling the police that correlation is not causation.
