As I am also doing the book review for this book I thought I would take this opportunity to do a blog post on the other chapters since I figured I would keep my opinion out of the review. The last three chapters talked about various things including religion, hatred of jewish individuals, toy preferences (which we talked about in class with him) and many other topics. He has a whole section in one of the chapters of Nomological networks of cumulative evidence which it thought was pretty interesting and that’s where the toy preferences example came up. However he also talks about Islam using the nomological network of cumulative evidence and after reading that section along with other sections that talked about Islam in some way shape or form, it seems to me that he believes that terrorists (which are muslim) become that way because they practice Islam. (he’s basically saying that its the religion that makes them violent and commit terrorists acts)
I’m just gonna leave it at that….
