I skimmed over the stuff you posted. Yet you try and provide counter arguments without actually reading the post in which yo uare countering..and within your previous posts you even misconstrued the content of my post..so how about you either don't reply..or read the hwole post before trying to refute it..
You seem to be mad that I'm not taking your post seriously, but you stated that there are trend, and then you supported it with a post that amounts to cheerypicking. Nobody is denying that some people kill in the name of Allah which is all you've proven. Cherry picking?..Osama Bin Laden and countless leaders of organizations that specialize in killing the name name of Allah is Cherry picking :lol: ?...
If you want to establish a trend, you need to go beyond what you've laid out in your post. Really?..Because i think the claims made by heads of known terrorist orginizations can be considered as substantial as you'll ever get in regards to this subject..
I mean, if you're going to make a statement, it doesn't look very good to support it in the most lazy of ways. "most lazy of ways"..all you're doing is saying "that's not good enough" with no actual reason for saying such a thing..you fail to realize it is IMPOSSIBLE to get statistics in regards to this topic..recognizing trends goes far beyond just statistics..just because you don't have statistics for something does not mean that it cannot be considered a recognizable trend..do you have statistics for people who dye their hair black and are Goth?...No?..Yet people consider this a "trend" in regards to Goths..some things cannot be identified as tends solely by using statistics..sometimes one must use the skill of observation..when multiple terrorist leaders state that they kill in the name of allah..we can then assume that those who follow these leaders kill in the name of allah as well..as shown by one of the quotes in which a follower of a terrorist organization stated he was killing in the name of Allah..oh..but you didn't read that....so what's the point in trying to explain it..
If you can't adequately support your statement with substantial methods, then maybe you shouldn't make the statement. If you can't adequately read the whole post why should i bother supporting my assertions? Why should i even take you seriously when you can't even take 5 minutes to read a post that was refuting your assertions?..Furthermore, all one needs to do to recognize this trend is pick up a newspaper and read about the countless attacks/attempted attacks made by Islamic followers, and then read why they claim they were going to/did such a thing when possible..I have provided more then enough evidence to support the claim that it is indeed a trend..unless you either do not watch the news..or you hide under a rock...you should recognize this trend as well..as it is fairly apparent..I have substantiated as much as is possible short of actually going to the Middle East and asking every man who decides to blow himself up whether or not he is doing it in the name of Allah then forming a stats chart in regards to the information i obtained..
Do you know what cherrypicking is? Cherrypicking in the process of using a relatively small number of cases and trying to make it into a trend.
A trend is widespread and is arrived at through mathematical proof, not the news.
Your problem is that you want to arrive at certain conclusions is the most simplistic way possible instead of doing some real work to prove them, hence me calling your method lazy.
The fact that you think that some patched together quotes and statements like "go look at the news" is substantial is a joke to anybody who has every done any multi-tiered research.
I'm skimming your posts because your method makes no sense for proving a trend. It is inadequate. I'm not going to sugarcoat that for you and tell you that you've actually made your point.
Osama bin Laden and Al'qaeda attacked america because of POLITICAL reasons, unlike you im not going to ask you to just beleive my words rather il let you hear it from the man himself.
