A student argues, 'The alarm sounded after I wore my red shoes, so the shoes caused the alarm.' Which Latin label best explains the error in the phrase 'post hoc ergo propter hoc'?
A
'With this, therefore equal to this'; correlation is correctly treated as identity.
B
'Before this, therefore prevented by this'; earlier events cannot affect later ones.
C
'After this, therefore because of this'; mere sequence is mistaken for causation.
D
'About this, therefore beyond this'; the argument changes topics without a conclusion.
