The prisoner is referring to the Cave analogy. He is adapting it to fit Christianity, placing the Divine Ruler, Providence, God in the metaphysical as the truth, true light , and happiness.

"Proving" a negative isn't really possible in those sorts of designs. You can reject or fail to reject a null hypothesis, but you can't "prove" one. As such what the author seems to want won't ever come in (proof that there is no causal relationship). But with the number of failed tests that have sought to establish a link, the consensus would suggest there is no association. Some friends of mine just published a very good article in the American Sociological Review that actually made just this point.

So glad to see a review of this.
