But if you look at the whole sentence so far:

Because toucan likes to rub lamps to summon genies to bring peace to African gnomes who hate washing their babies because they’re too smelly and disgusting and unable to urinate, he has no time for chemistry. 

We can take out the blue part because it only serves as a description of what rubbing lamps does. The red part makes:
Because toucan likes to rub lamps, (cause) he has no time for chemistry.(effect)
which is quite strange, but makes sense.

However, if you were to end the sentence, it would make:
Because toucan likes to rub lamps to summon genies to bring peace to African gnomes who hate washing their babies because they're too smelly and disgusting and unable to urinate in a nappy. (We need an effect to go with the cause.)
which is somewhat similar to:
Because I like swimming. <- We need an effect to go with the cause.
Because I like swimming, I decided to go to the pool today.


Anyway, I'll continue.

This caused the
