Okay. Followup question. Supposing I martyr myself without committing suicide, would I get male virgins, female virgins, or some of both?
Sorry, it's not virgins. It's a mistranslation of the word for grapes. Grapes in paradise.
"The Koran says martyrs going to heaven will get 'hur,' and the word was taken by early commentators to mean 'virgins,' hence those 72 consorts. But in Aramaic, hur meant 'white' and was commonly used to mean 'white grapes' ".
Every religion is true one way or another. It is true when understood metaphorically. But when it gets stuck in its own metaphors, interpreting them as facts, then you are in trouble. - Joseph Campbell
