>Hmmm, it would seem that Islam has a good offer: Blow yourself up and become a martyr, and you'll have 70 virgins waiting for you in heaven. Beats dying slowly of cancer and going to the Christian hell, cos you don't belive in JC. No wonder there are so many takers!

That is not Islam. It is the fundamentalist / terrorist branch of the religion, and they have it all wrong.
