Just what we need, more anti-Arab sentiment. Why can't she get a Christian saying Jews don't get into heaven as well?

Sounds like anti-non-muslim sentiment to me. Call me crazy.

How do you know she doesn't?

This Islamic man wasn't being judgmental. His god says christians aren't going to heaven. The religious right must be saying muslims aren't going to heaven.

Maybe they're both wrong. God will be more forgiving. Heaven will have a christian wing and a muslim wing.

I'm referring to the sentiment that will arise from his statement. It just widens the cultural gap, which will only hurt Arabs in this country.

I don't. I hope she does though, to make reasonable people cringe.

I doubt there will be a lot of reasonable viewers tuning in.

Guess none of you saw this special.

The Christian guy said there would be no need for sex in heaven.
The Muslim guy said there would be all the sex you want.
The Radical Islamic guy said there would be 72 virgins for each guy going to heaven.

I just saw some of the closed caption text, and it made me cringe.

I don't understand the attraction of virgins. I mean, I guess you'll be the best they ever had, but shouldn't that be true in heaven anyway?

[jogsxyz]

But now you understand the attraction for the Radical Islamic. 72 each.

Well, at any rate they won't be the best you've ever had.

72 virgins sounds like alot. But eternity will be billions of years. You better ration yourself.
