Azade,
Some people die for what they believe in, some poeple die on duty...if you duty at the time happens to be associated with defense of your country and/or religion...you get a prize.

What is wrong with that?

Quoting azade:



What are we supposed to do? I AM trying to protest against it by passing information on to others. In Denmark we actually have an organization called Democratic Muslims which oppose to the wrong things being done in islams name. But it takes 1000 good deeds to even out 1 wrong, sadly.


I'm not referring to you Azade, I'm just stating an observation. Wouldn't you agree with it?



Yes I agree. I wish more muslims would aid to the cause.

Quoting AlphaF:

they can not be in a better place.



How do we know it is a better place!! anyone ever come back to tell us?



Once upon a time there was a group of mayfly larvae having a discussion at the bottom of their pond. They were very concerned because every so often one of their number would suddenly rush to the top of their world and disappear for ever. They made a promise to eachother that whichever of them was the next to go would return and explain what happened.
One day, as they were debating, one of them began to float upwards. The group called out to be sure to remember the promise. The larva, shot to the surface and found itself propelled on to a firm surface, bathed in a warm light. It felt very peculiar as he began to dry. Suddenly he felt the urge to fly and he found himself fluttering around the surface of the pond, taking in the delights of his new world. He caught a glimpse of his reflection in the surface of the pond and wondered at his beautiful new appearance. He was very excited and remembered his promise to his friends. But try as he might he could not get back to the bottom of the pond.
Abridged version of one analogy for children. I’m sure there are others.

Quoting AEnigma III:

Hmmmm I wonder if you could clarify something then. Do they ALL go to 'paradise' if they do something in the name of Allah? I am thinking about terrorists now.

For example, if someone came and set off a suicide bomb in your home, killing all your family, in the name of Allah and was quite convinced he was right, you would be happy that he would go to eternal paradise because he is a muslim?
