Call me crazy, but sex with virgins (a good Muslim’s heavenly reward) does not strike me as particularly alluring. Since I can do better in the “Here-and-now,” one of Islam’s more well-known incentives to behave and fear Allah loses its impact. To continue winning adherents, this silly religion will have to do better than peddling vague promises of vanilla sex in the ultimate gated community.
