It was a mistranslation; it's 72 Virginians.

Oh gosh, the OP was long.

To make clear the point in a shorter way to any reader, it is as follows the myth of the 72 virgins:

The Quran repeatedly makes promises of things that one would otherwise not have in life. (Unless your rich)

There is more to paradise than 72 virgins as promised by Allah through his messanger Mohammad.

The rivers run with milk and honey, one can suffer all the carnal pleasures without restraint in the after life and so on.

In fact the Hadith makes a clear jump at a number while the Quran makes that number pointless and insinuates that their may be no limit to the virgins to be had, secondly if one were to ignore the Hadith completely or Sharia then it would be just as clear in the Quran that a well believing Muslim may practice his desire after life with not just virgin girls but also boys and an unlimited number of them, it is heaven after all.

That is the clear and cut version I think.

So hang on.

Basically, what Islam states is that you have to follow an extremely strict set of rules for 70-80 years and then you can do whatever you want for eternity?

But wouldn't doing something forbidden in Heaven mean that you had always wanted to do it on Earth? And what is so special about Heaven in that respect?

Fuck. I spent all morning making this suicide vest for nothing.
