The predictability of one event from another does not imply that those events are cause and effect. For example, the theory of electrodynamics says that all electrons carry the same charge. Therefore, using that theory we can – and frequently do – predict the outcome of a measurement on one electron from the outcome of a measurement on another. But neither outcome was caused by the other.
