        @SamHarrisOrg I assume then that you have the complete stats on ISIS membership breakdowns? Or were you using anecdote to make a point?

        @thisduck Well, no. But every study I've seen in the last 15 years shows this (more or less): http://www.cnn.com/2015/02/19/opinion/bergen-terrorism-root-causes/index.html …

        @SamHarrisOrg "More or less" is not convincing. Are you willing to say that majority of people in such organizations are not from poverty?

        @thisduck I am absolutely willing to say that. ("poverty" when compared to the rest of their own societies, not Silicon Valley)

        @SamHarrisOrg So we're talking about groups like the Taliban and ISIS. Do you have poverty stats for Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iraq, Syria, etc

        @SamHarrisOrg "give them a chance at a job and they won't turn to radical ways," seems to be missing the mark now. #questionreligion
