Was thinking about the 2008 Paper 1 question "Are we putting too much faith in statistics?" and came across this article about the rise of pro-lifers in USA, 'proven' by a poll.
All statistics have a caveat that they are not 100% accurate so one cannot fault the numbers when the 0.00001% of chance results did not turn out as predicted.
Are we over-trusting the charts? If yes, why so much trust? What can happen if we trust statistics too much?
