Why is Islam so violent [Specific Topic]
Posted 07-10-2015 at 09:15 PM by Continuum
This is another post that has gone off topic.
Note my point on your views regarding going off topic above.
Side views: I have explained before; despite some violent elements in the NT the central leveraging elements of the NT is 'Love thy Enemies' 'Love thy neighbors' 'give the other cheeks'. These violence has more to do with the inherent human nature of the perpetrators rather than the religion itself. I will not go further into this.
I agree with you on 'I agree about 20% of Muslims have a predisposistion for Violence.'
But when you switch and deflect to Drug cartels in Mexico, you are going off topic.
See my critique of your approach above.
Note I started a thread in comparing Secular versus religious wars, which is worse. You can give your views there.

First there are evil prone humans in the world committing all sorts of evil. All these evils must be dealt with, prevented, reduced or eliminated if possible. What we should be concerned with are present evils & violence and its potential threats into the future whilst learning from history.
So evils and violence in general is a serious issue and that need to be resolved. That will entail effective problem solving techniques. One of the most critical element in effective problem solving in breaking down the whole problem into manageable smaller units/parts.
One of my forte is problem-solving skills.

Note this reasonably reliable statistic on incidents with fatalities committed by Muslims around the world.

From the above empirical evidence it is very obvious we can form a reasonable [B]hypothesis[/B].
As a concerned citizens of the world, one should make some attempt to find the root cause of the above.
I have done a detailed analysis and traced the root cause of the above to Islam [in [B][COLOR=magenta]part[/COLOR][/B]] and its ethos [in [B]part[/B]] containing evil laden elements which catalyze [COLOR=magenta][B]SOME[/B] [/COLOR]evil prone Muslims to commit the above terrible evils. I have provided the arguments in various posts [avoiding [B][COLOR=magenta]generalizations[/COLOR][/B]], so I will not go into the details here.
