The anti-gun herd approves this message.

Hey, do you know if the jihads are promised 72 human virgins or if "allah" specified on species?

.......... the believers who make it into Paradise, male and female, are promised beautiful companions, known as “Houris” in Arabic. The Quran describes them in some detail as such:

“Serving [the believers] will be immortal youths with jeweled and crystal cups filled with the purest wine which will neither give them headache nor hangover, with fruits and meats of their desire. They will be fair ones with lovely intense eyes like guarded pearls; A reward for the good deeds of their past life.” (56:17-24)
“We have created mates for them and made them virgins, matched in age, for the companions of the right hand.” (56:35-38)

Men AND women get servants. I didn't study Islam as much as Judaism and Christianity. I was interested in a more realistic approach to an entity not a self-serving chauvinistic man's delusional dream for world domination.

Yea 56-17 is a pretty gnarly thing to look forward to. Circulating boys. Geesh. I bet the hope for a few goats here and there.

you misread the passage. Men get women servants and women get men servants. What they mean by "youths" is unknown. Could be any age and they are not "human" servants as we know it but in human form. They are specifically made for the purpose and not "boys and girls" or "men and women" as people think. That's one of the misconceptions people have. What is given to the righteous is not the same as what is on earth.

Oh I see what you are saying. I just assume that since it says youth and that's all that they can comprehend in this life is the idea of small children. That is what they would look forward to. Do you see where im coming from? :/

Yes. There are a lot of misconceptions about religion because people don't take it upon themselves to do their own research. The worst thing anyone can do about suspect information from a person's mouth is believe it verbatim. Be smart. Find out for yourself so you're not just as ignorant as they.

Right, exactly. The thing that bothers me is that they would still be longing for something comparable to young boys/girls in heaven. Even though they say it is something better. I just don't think that is as ignorant as some may think. They still going to pass around glorified special holy boys/girls. That's still disturbing and sick? Or am I say of base here?

You're putting the human element into it that's why it's sickening. It's more of a "pure" servant reward than "boy or girl". It's also difficult to get the "exact" meaning due to translation difficulties because there is no specific word translation from what I learned. Take the time to read The American Muslim (TAM) website. It has a lot of facts and misconceptions concerning Islam. Not that I'm a proponent, just the opposite but I do like to know for myself whether something is true or just ignorant bashing. Another thing is there is no reward for martyrs, terrorists or suicide bombers anywhere in the Quran. The killing of innocents is strictly forbidden but I'm leery of why the "peaceful" Muslims do nothing to stop the terrorism. Either they condone the acts to get what they want in a one world religion or they are too afraid to do anything.
