if the question is serious, then the answer is simple(and the same for every religion).......salvation. you can harp and poke fun at and ridicule a religion that is not your own just like millions to do your religion, but at the end of the day, people join for salvation. /thread

The difference as to how Muslims get to "salvation" is different than other religions. Muhammad commanded Muslims to "jihad" to get to Allah.

Jiahd is the only assured way to salvation, the other way is to live life how Allah commands it and be judged on your actions by him after death(sounds familiar), which can be done peacefully. I believe even a jihadist can "go to hell" if they did not live their lives in a way that honoured Allah(hypocrisy; talking the talk, but not walking the walk).

Islam is one of the many things that I know very little about.

What it drawing so many people to follow these teachings?

I'm sure you folks have far more insight in this, so I'm ready to learn.......

I believe the the attraction is the Drugs, Booze, unadulterated sex, Polygamy, great selection of weapons, endless amounts of porn, Dominance over women, subservient wife/s... martyrdom followed by endless virgins... it's sort of like living at home with your parents.

Domineering sex. Permissible slavery. Sanctified conquest. Visions of horny grandeur in the afterlife. No need for toilet paper. :angry3:

Love of bacon would never let me fall victim to that decadent and perverse lifestyle, though. :thumbup3:
