#1 Reading the article at the link you'll learn that before they were incompetent boomers the "good lads" were still local street scum. One it appears got citizenship recently even after doing time for a violent crime. Anybody know UK immigration law and how it deals with violent criminals.

#3 Since no impure thoughts are allowed on earth for a good "Allanist", it would seem natural there would be a promise of a carnal orgy in the afterworld... And we wonder why they have such a low opinion of women?

There is quite a level of extreme cruelty in such a philosophy... 72? why not 80? Are we on a slippery slope?... What next 92? 100? 1000? 10,000? .... Disgusting culture, isn't it?

How about having one you are crazy about in this life and doing all sorts of "stuff" in this life?

But who am I to talk? I am just an INFIDEL!

#4 In the Koran chap 78: 31-34 have one description of heaven which might be translated to promise 'beautiful maidens with round breasts' - however, it could also be translated a 'juicy white grapes'

The specific 72 virgins idea comes from Hadith number 2,562 in the collection known as the Sunan al-Tirmidhi says, "The least for the people of Heaven is 80,000 servants and 72 wives, over which stands a dome of pearls, aquamarine and ruby." This could mean that each person in heaven gets 72 women or that all the people of heaven share 72 women. It is generally taken in the first way.

#5 what is it with this preoccupation with virgins in the afterlife.

why not be preoccupied with making this world a better place in which to live.

oh. I forgot. It's muslims we're dealing with here

#6 Of course the 'Virgins' cannot be -er- deflowered and dont ever menstrate (sp?). Sounds to me like they lack the basic -er- equipment the Jihaldists have their panties in a [literal] knot about..

BTW: I think we need the pic of the bearded vrigins here.....

Sounds like it deals with them about as well as US immigration law does.

#9  dome of pearls, aquamarine and ruby.

That imples money and weath --- but --- iff you are in Heaven WTF do you need money and wealth for?

Sounds like purgatory at best.

That said it sound really really boring...

First the virgin thing. After a max of 72 days they are not virgins anymore and between them will nag you right into hell.

80,000 servants is even worse. If they are living under domes of pearls decorated with aquamarine and ruby - it doesn't sound like they have HDTV let alone computers to help manage 80,000 servants doing some really myopic upkeep. (Maybe polishing the stupid dome?) Now managing that many folks (let alone the 72 wives) without computers and such sounds like a logistical nightmare. That brings up this problem. Why is each splodydope's dome made so poorly that it needs 80,000 servants to maintain it and him? WHAT SORT OF LOW RENT HEAVEN IS THIS?
Sound really a pain in the butt to me.

You forgot the 72 mothers-in-law!

#11 They got it backward, Heaven ought to be were you get 72 women of ill-repute, the uninhibited, nyphomaniac type.
Hell is where you get 72 virgins. 50 year old cat lady type virgins that got smacked around with the fugly stick.
I hope Atta and his murderers are enjoying their bag ladies.

#12 Anything left of M. Atta was worm feed a long time ago. No heaven. No 72 mules. No hell. Just worm feed and the collective memory of the name of murderous scum whose tolerant faith "inspired" them.

#13 What can one expect from a religion founded by a lecher?

#14 Actually, 3dc, it need not be consecutive days. This blog has an interesting treatment on how to maximize the "value" of 72 virgins for all eternity.

Of course, it might not be 72 (or 80) virgin humans. It could be 72 virgin camels. Male camels. And you're the bottom.

#15 says a lot that they have to promise unrealistic earthly pleasures to get these mooks to go to eternity while committing acts that most religions would say seal a fate in eternity...
confusion reigns supreme

#16 to believe in the teachings of the Koran: stupid
to boom people because you believe in the Koran: criminal
to watch the face of a boomer when he wakes up in "paradise": priceless

#17 To have a vision of Paradise as some sort of Cosmic Cathouse: vile.

#18 Or a raisin market?
Don't know but 72 raisins for eternity...
A bit stingy methinks

#19 Yeah, that's more than a bit stingy; heck, even sitting on a cloud playing the harp for all eternity would be better than that. At least I'd be learning to play a musical instrument...

#20  Boy, are these subs going to be dissappointed when they find out it's one 72 year old (or one 80 year old) virgin! Slight error in the original translation.

#21 And people still whine about Jesus stating that those who are worthy of heaven will not marry or be given away in marriage when they get there: I don't think ANYONE understood why he said that until the consequences and entailments of a religion that DOES promise unending superhuman sex in heaven were clearly seen. I think he KNEW what the consequences would be if there was even a remote indication that Sex in Heaven was a possibility.
