Coincidence or truth?
The post's title by itself is a false dichotomy.
The way I was taught to recognize illogical statements is to find one, and come up with similar ones:
• Leaves just "falling" off trees this week (for no reason), or a sign of the End Times? You choose.
• I heard Billy Bob use the Lord's name in vain 13 times yesterday. He then woke up with a headache this morning. Coincidence? I'll leave it to you to decide.
• I painted my house a light blue just 3 weeks before meeting the woman who would end up to be my wife. Do you still doubt the power of blue to increase love, or will you continue to be ignorant? It's your decision.
• Do you support our troops or not? It's a simple yes and no question. I don't see the bumper sticker on your truck, so I'm pretty sure which of the two answers you are.
• There are some famous people who have mocked God and resulted in living to their nineties. Coincidence? Or the truth?
• There are some famous people who all lived—at one time or another—in the state of Illinois and resulted in their untimely death. Coincidence or is it time we recognize the location of evil?
• I saw blinking lights in the sky last night. Are you going to finally admit to aliens, or are you going to live like sheep and vote for Trump? Which is it?
You're either for us, or you're against us.
