What makes a terrorist?

[Uncle Timmy]

Yeah, you already tried this route before ?Is it a catalyst or isn?t it? Is it a common factor or isn?t it? Is it an overwhelming theme or isn?t it?.

Here are some other synonyms for catalyst, factor, and theme that you can use to re-ask the question a few more times:

Accelerator
Activator
Causal agency
Component
Agent
Motif


Just thought I would save you some time, for as you said you just don?t have as much as me.

Nobody but you is debating ?catalysts?, ?common factors?, and ?overwhelming (unqualified) themes.?

?Root causes? are the topic of this discussion. Stick to the original argument and its definitions.

Hint: The definition of root cause is different than that of a catalyst, factor, or theme.

You said earlier that my belief that it was a catalyst was wrong. Are you taking that back?

You don't have to take a vote, just look at the evidence. Is oppression an overwhelming theme or isn't it? You can disagree that water is wet, but it doesn't change anything.

Let me give you a scenario here, one you can work with.

Say an Indian walks up to you and offers to do a rain dance (not sure if it's one word or two) for you or pass out in the street drunk, Ira Hayes style (this is a joke and a caricature to make a point, everyone, don't get worked up). If you didn't really care for either, you could say that neither, that you didn't want to limit yourself to those two choices. If he walked up and said "You want-um watch rain dance?", saying that you didn't limit yourself to those two choices would make you look like an idiot.

Yes, in the face of your blistering and unrelentingly well thought out arguments, I am recanting everything I have said.............................

Do you have anything new to add to this discussion because you look like you are intellectually flailing uncontrolably here and I am having a hard time even understanding your attempted point here.

The words on my post are from you

Well, I agree.........someone here sure looked like a idiot.

Wow. Deductive reasoning really isn't your strong point, is it?

You ever notice how you accuse me of trying to get in the last word, then manage to post at least 3 times when I've gone a few hours without responding to you?

I know that really pisses you off. It explains why you always post at 4:55 each day hoping to get in that last word of the day.

Deal with it.
