Suicide And The Quoran

You have to remember that the majority of people in the middle east are illiterate. They can only believe what the imams and sheikhs tell them. They've been lied to and brainwashed, simple as that. They don't practice Islam as it's written, they practice Islam as they're taught it's written.
 
Islam heaven = 72 virgins
Islam hell = they all stay virgins

I heard some christians laughing about them believing such things as the virgins, I had not the evil in my heart to ask them about the multitudes of angels with wings which they believe in.

I'm not so sure. Aren't a number of these people college educated or "good students?" I remember seeing some HBO special about it. And those guys that flew into the Towers could read, or else they wouldn't have been able to take those flying lessons.

How flexible are the Quran's teachings if nothing about suicide/martyrdom is in there?

You're right. The 9/11 hijackers were very intelligent, they had to be for the plan to work. But that's 19 people out of how many who "martyr" themselves daily?

You're post actually made me wanna see what the literacy rates actually are. I gotta admit, they're a little higher than I thought.
