Talk about a misconception and poor read: I was listening to a rock station after work tonight, and the DJ joked that ISIS, due to a loss of oil revenue, announced that they had to cut salaries by 50%. The announcer announced that even sociopaths must face economic reality.
Actually, the DJ terribly overrated the human natures of the ISIS killers, directly, and the natures of all humans, indirectly.
All humans are about created equal, and all are equally depraved from birth. They are wicked not crazy, and willingly commit atrocities under their sick theology.
There are likely some sociopaths among them, but most ISIS fighters, under differing circumstances and upbringing, would live out their lives peacefully and quietly.
Deep down we all have the same capacity to be very stupid and very cruel, or extraordinarily smart and saintly. It mostly hinges upon the values that each youngster is taught at his mother's knee.
They are not sociopaths, but are cruel sinners--just small-time wreaking world class crimes.
