Is Islam shallow for using sex in heaven as it’s main draw for Muslim men?
70 virgins in heaven. Are Muslim men shallow for falling for such an obvious lie?
Compare Islam’s heaven to Buddhism. In Buddhism your reward for following it is enlightenment and all knowledge of the universe and life.
The prize for Muslims is to offer you indulgences in excess sex. Wisdom is not mentioned, or if it is, I have not heard of it.
Muslims. Is such a heaven really something to strive for and be proud of?
Allah's heaven seems better suited to the feeble minded and those who can't comprehend the nuances of reality or want to live in a porn movie. It's truly fast food for the masses, an advertisement that everyone can comprehend because it appeals to one's basest drives. Our Sexuality.
Do you really picture Jesus and Mohamed in heaven with a bunch of virgins moving on and off their engorged members?
Do you picture Mary, watching such activity with pride?
Does PBUH stand for ---- Pieceoftail Be Upon Him?

you seem to be suggesting that its better to believe in something that appears to be less shallow but shouldn't our beliefs be based on what we think is true, not just what we wish would be true - whether its shallow or not?

no, they tell suicide bombers etc that's what will be waiting for them. the suicide bombers are chosen as young, single males, no families, less to lose, and in that society an unmarried male isn't getting any. clearly to have your leader 'choose' you for a suicide bombing mission, they have to give you a worthwhile incentive, so a religious leader assures the young men that 70 virgins will be waiting for them in heaven, as they haven't had a chance to marry and get any on earth. with this 'belief' planted in their minds by a trusted imam (probably not dissimilar to a lot of beliefs held by Crusaders or soldiers in other times as a justification) they then muster up the courage to attempt the mission. we use concepts like 'national security' or 'honour' or 'duty' etc to get people to sacrifice their lives similarly.
