Cause and effect is different that Newton's laws of MOTION. Your source is clearly aware of this. You are not.

You said that cause and effect were equal to Newton's law: the law stating that every action has an equal an opposite reaction. But your conception is childish and picayune. What you are really saying is that every action has an effect. That is not being disputed But a cause DOES NOT have an equal and opposite effect. If it did...any bastard could control the world.

A cause only has a primary effect. It does not have a secondary effect which is "equal and opposite". You cannot transplant the Laws of Motion into a mushroom nightmare. Once again...if it could have been done, it would have been. Go up and claim the prize!!

I can kick you and move myself (Newton's third Law of Motion), but I cannot give you a million dollars...and receive a million(CHUCKLE); and I cannot give you a car and receive a car back!

You claimed that the law of motion was the same as the correspondence of cause and effect. Your claim was a stupid one. The third law of motion is a law of physics. It is about motion and how it entails an opposite force...it is not about the fact that effects have causes.

It is about the fact that the force of momentum always creates an equal an opposite force of momentum. I guess that I would rather say "reveals"...but that is irrelevant to your misunderstanding.

You said that Newton's third law was the same as the fact of correspondence. There is no comparison. The third law of motion is a law of physics. It has to do with motion...PERIOD. New Age masturbation is three rooms over...
