What if you are female, and 72 female virgins await you in the after life?

It’s gonna be hell when y’all sync up eventually.

I wouldn’t like the thought of having 72 male or female virgins at my disposal when I die , the logistics would be far beyond my capabilities

You would have to have 72 virgins for every individual that died. Are there that amount of virgins? You could not have the same virgins each time, that is impossible.

OP did not mention virgins in the question. So in that case their will be 72 ignorant cherry somebody’s there you will have to school. Still seems like hell in disguise. And then you will have a permanent priapism, if you were a male. That’s not a good place.

Well, if you’re both homosexual and female, then, woo-hoo?

Ok, so I’m not gay and that’s ok, because I assume I won’t have any physical needs that needs to be attended too. So basically we maybe get to sing and dance and chat all day. I would say shoot me now but then that may put me in that hell right away. Although I would be ok with the singing and the dancing. But 72 women to hover over me is not my idea of heaven. That would be like having 72 moms. Why any guy would want that as well is beyond me. I just hope my family is there to hang with. Heaven could use a little drama.

Even worse. It would be like 72 girls.

Sounds like middle school all over again.

I yie yie

I will be greeted by 72 geese.

Keep the damn virgins, I will customize my own afterlife. ;-)

Sorry for the abiguity.

I guess we will just do our nails and hair and talk talk talk about many different things, just like I would here on earth. I don’t care if a woman is a virgin or not.

As a side note, I think it is disgusting religions think of virgin women as a reward. And, to begin with I am not fond of an overfocus on the afterlife in general.

I find it difficult to understand and believe the promises made by any religion.

@Elm1969 In the case of Islam, it helps to keep in mind that Mohammed was a nasty old pervert.
As for the ratios: perhaps they’re just realistic constructs?

@JLeslie Have you considered virginity as an aspect of fidelity? No idea if that’s what Mo was going for, though. I agree, though; rewarding people in the afterlife with people isn’t very nice. The Judeo-Christian faiths, fortunately, don’t do that. If you ask me, it’s uglier from the perspective of the evolutionary biologist, where virginity is valued because it speaks of a lack of competition for the eventual offspring.

@Nullo I was just wondering if those are virgins who have died? Or, virgins that are just up there in heaven waiting? Never having had an earthly life, just provided by God.

Christians do focus on the afterlife as reward and punishment. They just also have a balance of valuing life also.

@JLeslie No idea about the virgins. I venture the possibility that there isn’t much to them as creatures. Given what I know about Mohammed, I wouldn’t expect him to have more than a sexual or else domestic use for a woman.

And I was referring to using people as rewards, not rewards in general.

I suppose I could look at living my life to the full when I am alive and have the possibility of a meagre afterlife or I could have a lifestyle following a religion and a fulfilled afterlife. The choice is my own.

@Nullo I don’g think there is much difference. I guess since it seemingly degrades women it’s bad, but Christianity promises seeing our dead loved ones. I guess maybe Judaism does too? I’m not sure.

That is why it is more often Muslim men who blow themselves up.

@JLeslie The dead loved ones who are Christians, because you’re all there together. It’s the difference between meeting your old friends at a venue, and the management saying, “Hey, we have your friends here to entertain you, so come on down!”

As long as Heaven also has beer, I’m cool with it.

@Symbeline I honestly don’t see what people find appealing about beer. All of the stuff that I’ve tried (granted, I haven’t tried a lot) has been…bitter, I guess. I end up dumping it out, reasoning that there’s no sense in drinking something I don’t like. Beer bread, on the other hand…
The Bible is generally silent on the nature of heavenly refreshments, though there are references to a feast – probably more in the ‘party’ sense rather than the ‘whole roasted cow on a spit’ sense. Food won’t be necessary, but I see no reason why there shouldn’t be an appreciation of the culinary arts.

Although I am an alcoholic, or rather, a former one so far since I’ve stopped drinking for a good while; I was just jokin around. If Heaven exists I hardly doubt it fits this scenario.
