Other than the 72 virgins and max olives thing for Jihadists, I fail to understand the appeal of Islam.
“...I fail to understand the appeal of Islam....”
No one in their right mind does.
There is no appeal. It’s assimilate or die.
Islam is the BORG of this century.
Its pure faith and obedience, and zero logic or rationality. There are no moral quandaries as a Muslim. Hence the need for the many rulings from Ulama or Imams on asinine topics such as if Twitter should be allowed, or how thick a rod may be used to beat one's wife. It provides a type of determinist certainty for the lazy, stupid or fearful.
I think it also appeals to people who like tocontrol other people.
