I remain in awe of how anyone could convince a human being that killing themselves would bring on 72 virgins. If you set out to convince someone of this, how would you do it? I want to know!

I would guess it is the same thing as Christians believing in Heaven as some extraordinary place we go to when we die. It's pure faith as "dead men tell no tales". I have a circa 1850 book written by an American who traveled to the Middle East. The part about their schools was interesting. They had one book, the Koran. They would memorize it. It would be interpreted to them. The "rocking" that you see was for concentration. I wish I could print out the entire text. It is just "telling" on how to brainwash and control a society.
