    If I didn't know better, I would think this had something to do with religion. Where's Scott Atran?http://nyti.ms/1iGJCRz

        @SamHarrisOrg Out there doing field research on the stuff you only speculate about?

        @GarethCraze Really? Just what do you think "field research" among ISIS would turn up? Go ahead: "speculate."

        @SamHarrisOrg Probably that their professed religious motives are a secondary driver (at best) of their movement's solidarity and actions.

        @GarethCraze And yet religion is the ONLY difference between themselves and the people they are fighting...

        .@SamHarrisOrg Yes. It has nothing to do with decades of sanctions, intervention, destabilization and general fuckery.

        @SamHarrisOrg @024601 you're a gigantic idiot. ISIS was not created in the year 900.

        @SamHarrisOrg under the banner of ISIS versus the government of Maliki, both using US supplied weapons? Not even a decade.

        @KaliZara you are missing the elephant in the room. They are motivated by their religion and nothing else.

        @Fl0rFlorian wow. Stupidest comment heard today. It couldn't possibly be because their friends and family are being droned to death.

        @KaliZara @Fl0rFlorian Let me get this straight. The Shia are fighting the Sunnis because they both hate America? @SamHarrisOrg

        @SamHarrisOrg And, how many different brands of Christianity are there? Kind of makes you wonder what the purpose of religion is.

        @SamHarrisOrg You're missing the point, Sam. If religion wasn't around to form a basis for morality things could get ugly.
