Cause is a construct - not a real thing.
Sorry you guys. I know that makes some of you crazy and you want to argue with me a lot about why that idea is wrong. The problem is that the idea is not wrong - Cause is a construct that is attributed to an event - it is never real and never singular.
This Safety Moment talks about this idea in a nice way. See if you agree and see what you think.
Thanks for being a part of the podcast. You are the best!
