Is there any evidence that there is life after death?

Some believe man is more spiritual, more developed and cared for by God more than a donkey and is excited at the prospect of being close to God, not needing eternal sex with virgins as reward for worshipping and living the proper life.

Carnal doesn’t mean “forbidden”, it is by characterized by the flesh, its passions and appetites, it is not spiritual in nature. I don’t know of a religion that says sex between husband and life is not allowed (if it did, its followers would cease to exist), but it is still a carnal pleasure, especially for purposes other than procreation.

Still, no one has answered… is this belief of an afterlife of sex with perpetual virgins and other pleasures of the flesh the reason people follow their religion? If not for that carrot would there be a reason to please God?

In Islam, sex between a husband and wife, even for mere pleasure, is considered a Sadaqa, or charity…

In Paradise, the pleasures may not be carnal but they will be spiritual and of the senses…

I don’t know if you believe in heaven or hell, but if God can punish the unbelievers with carnal pain like fire and nails and nasty things that bite, then why is it that you do not believe He can reward the believer with carnal pleasures, like sex, fountains of milk and honey and golden palaces?

If the senses can be punished in Hellfire with pain then surely they can be titillated and rewarded in Paradise with pleasure, can’t they?
