"TIERED CAUSE AND EFFECT EXAMPLES

Introductory/Intermediate Examples

The boy missed the bus because he overslept.

The girl fell because the sidewalk was icy.

The man got a ticket because he was speeding.

Jason missed the swing because he didn’t keep his eye on the ball.

The girl had to miss recess because she didn’t do her homework.

Janice got an A on her science test because she studied very hard.

The trip to the beach was cancelled because of the rain.

The food in the refrigerator spoiled because the electricity went out.

Lightening hit the pine tree, causing it to fall on the road.

Susan didn’t read the recipe carefully, and her cookies did not turn out as she had expected. "

It seems that everything that happens has a cause, not created. What do you think?

No. You have forgotten teleology which is an alternative to causality.

e.g. The heart pumps blood around the body in order to oxygenate the muscles and brain and remove waste products.

But this is no more an argument for "creation" than any other form of explanatory statement.

Every example is about , cause and effect but what of the AFFECT , the consequence of ..? This is the thing , there are three aspects to any action in the micro and macro world . Affect ,Effect and Cause , which come first ..? We do not know.

We are idling motors, waiting for someone or something to put us in gear.
Your response to my post, for example, put me in gear.

“What we think, or what we know, or what we believe is, in the end, of little consequence. The only consequence is WHAT WE DO.” John Ruskin (1819 - 1900)

“When we remember we are all mad, the mysteries disappear and life stands explained.” Mark Twain
