Science, Creation & EvolutionFinding God in His wordJovaro: You do not have to be wise, you have to be influencial and charismatic to get people to follow you, good advisors don't hurt. You give the masses too much credit. In a society where woman are not viewed with much clout or respect, other than their uses as mothers and wives, you would expect "heaven" to be described in a "mans" view. In addition, if you ask the common man what he would like in heaven, even today, sex on demand would be highly prized. Yes, I think muhammed WOULD make up heaven with virgins, given the fixation that culture has on virginity and multiple wives, and the subdued role of woman...the view of the quran is exactly what I would expect from a man, or men, of that culture. Especially given the times that Muhammed lived in, and the legalistic view of the Islamic religion in general, I think the view of heaven is classic of a man-made view. |
