>>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!

Yeah, I know. It was a joke. Such perpertrators have a neck to affiliate themselves to ANY religion! This wasn't a pop at Islam (Some of the commuters in London on 7/7, having to walk home, passed through and were given succour by, Islamic communities).

The point I was making was, according to all this hell-and-damnation clap-trap, you might as well perpertrate such evil, as you get a much better afterlife if you're a non-Christian religious zealot martyr than someone whose only "sin" is that he doesn't know of/believe in JC
