Not really.

I'm more concerned about this pathetic government. They keep continuing invading countries with ''dictators'' and starting wars with ''terrorists''.

I deal with facts. Many of those deal with probabilities. IE the odds of me being killed by X. As such I am in fact concerned about being killed by ISIS. However I need to deal with higher priority threats, like my bathroom shower.

Speaking of which I need to go put on the waterproofing over the duraroc tonight.

How worried are you about ISIS attacks?
Not worried. You are more likely to get hit by lightning, than get killed by a terrorist. People get shot in Florida all the time, but should I waste my time worrying about it? Many are clearly afraid. If you read the forum, that is all they talk about.

Yes, I worry. More for my family than for myself.

Nobody's worried, meanwhile Brussels is in lockdown and the US government issues a worldwide travel alert.

China, France, Russia, United Kingdom, Germany, and the European Union also signed the Iran deal.

Are all of the above countries in bed with Iran?

Or is only Obama in bed with Iran?

Sure sounds to me like reasonable cause for concern.

If I were really as Christian as I thought I were, I would not ever be concerned because G-d controls everything. Sunday school and the preacher said our leaders are put there by G-d.

But, I have a better chance of hitting the lottery as being threatened by ISIS.
