I think biggest source of ridicule for Islam are followers who say we are Muslims and indulge in everything else. If we were following Islam correctly this 'ridicule source' would never have come to the 'scene', so stop blaming everything else when its Muslims themselves who are to blame.

I wish some people would come up with genuine reason explaining why heaven is describes as one big orgy in Islam... Most Muslims just seem to laugh it off, even though its a great source of disrespect towards Islam.

Heaven is not all that orgy that we keep hearing, its just what "we" are focussing on.

Can someone explain to me why Islam is such a male religion... Women have to be covered at all times apparently, must hidden away from men in the mosque, etc etc...

Would you rather want nude women on streets? would that be a big respect for them? Put them in show-cases would be another good show of respect I guess.

On top of that we demean them even more by saying we get 72 of them, virgins no less, for our own pleasure in heaven... Is this Islam or the Playboy Mansion!

Lets not get into numbers just yet, may be you can check Quran to say what it says for women's rewards.

Captin Sahab....Seems like u know a bit more about religion compared to rest of us..... then help me out in understanding the fact .... that why such a bribe for such a great deed..... wats the purpose of offering women to men...... why not offer a palace in heaven,why not a lake made of honey,milk etc. Why not good food. why only Women.
again n again..... offering women could never be the word of GOD. Its a bribe for men which only a human mind can think of.

Read my words again, I quote for your re-read, and 'bold'ing the important part:

I love it when hadith thumpers cling to their fantasies but always drag in the Qur'an to hide behind..
if u like the 72 hoor concept.. by all means.. just don't say it's from Qur'an & Hadith.. cuz it's only from Hadith.. and it won't be the last vulgar absurdity coming out of that corpse of literature either..

see.... the 'hoor' concept is from Quran, 72 of them concept is from Hadith... so 72 hoor concept comes from "Hadith & Quran", no? :D

Now you are on all sorts of tangents. My point is that our focus is on '72 hoors' as THE reward in heaven whereas there are so many others that are getting neglected.
Captin .... let me put it this way...... we concentrate on stuff which has been told and taught to us about ation n reactions..... every act has its own relevance....
if u do a histroy quiz.... u'll be waiting for a histroy result u'll concentrate on histroy result not calculas result.....
** if i'm gonna miss single prayer... i'll be focusing on being burnt in hell for thousand of years.... not HOORZ if i'll feed a hungry person i'll be foscuing on that my very own tree in heaven whoes shade will be never ending i wont be thinking about hoorz .
** u get wat i'm saying.......??
The Quran talks of hoors, but they're not the same thing as human virgins. So, no, you don't get 72 virgins.
The hadith's have some conflicts with their numbers, and its probably best not to worry about it. Most people don't even deserve a virgin human wife in this lifetime. 72 hoors tho duur ki baath hai.
As for human wives in heaven...it doesn't make much sense that every man would get at least 2 virgin wives. Because that means we women are working hard to get into heaven only to go to heaven and become part of a harem. Doesn't make much sense. Also doesn't add up with hadith's that talk about most women ending up in hell.

There are different rewards/levels for different acts. The one who is focused on hoors will keep focus on such deeds, then there are people who will do good to appease Allah swt. Whether you do good to appease Allah swt, in fear of Allah, in want of reward (a tree, a palace, hoor(s)) is upto each individual.
