Answer:

Correlation and causation are two very different things

Explanation:

Correlation means that two or more factors are dependent on each other in a way that one can be predicted with the help of the other. On the other hand, causation means that one thing causes another. For instance, a correlation between ice cream consumption and hot weather means that when its hot people eat ice cream more and in less hot weather people eat less ice cream. But if this correlation is confused with causation between ice cream demand and hot weather then it would mean that eating ice cream causes hot weather which will not be correct. Also for causation, three criteria should be met which are correlation, no effect of third extraneous variable and this casual effect should precede all other rational effects.

Answer:

Thanksgiving came to be an official holiday in 1863, declared by President Abraham Lincoln.

When, a magazine editor Sarah Josepha Hale came across this tradition celebrated by Pilgrims and Natives, she wrote letters to five Presidents asking to declare Thanksgiving, a national holiday. It was President Abraham Lincoln who paid heed to this request and with an idea  of unte the country during his presidency, he declared the last Thursday of November as a Thanksgiving day and declared it a national holiday. The date, however, was changed to fourth Thursday of November by President Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1941, to avoid shifting of national holiday (as some year may have five Thursday's in November).
