I mean, real muslims know that that teaching is false, but still, if god wanted to provide them, he could.

Not trying to argue for the belief, just saying people who say "there not enough virgins for this belief" are using an invalid argument

Yes, if He wanted to, He could and would if He had said He would. By the way, I understand the word was mistranslated... it is actually translated as raisins... not virgins. Oh well.... God could provide virgins and/or raisins if He chose to.

Those 72 virgins for Muslims would have had have been made by the Creator when It was making the Souls of ALL that was and will be. other wise there would probably be a shortage of them to go around.

There is nothing that says God couldn't but I think he wouldn't. I mean, why should he give a gift of 72 beautiful pure women to a maniac who blows himself up with a bomb and kills hundreds of people with himself all in the name of religion. As the muslims say, God is Great and he does not do crazy things.

Paradise? Seventy two virgins for every man? What about for women? This is an Arabic vision.
God is spirit. Our source of God is found in the words spoken by the prophets. The Christian bible ends with Jesus. No where will you find any reference to a harem. This is not the case Muhammad.
In the Christian bible there is no description of an after-life. In fact, Christians wait for the return of Jesus.

The 72 virgins would be commiting idolatry if they served anyone other than God. This is clearly a fable that 72 virgins will serve men in heaven, and not God.

I don't know 2 virgins...let alone 72. Besides...virgins are a pain in the @ss to train. I'll take 72 experienced people over virgins anytime.

I could get you 72 virgins if you paid me enough and I was unscrupulous enough, you don't need a god to find and capture them

I supopose it depend's where you're from.
Here in Dewsbury (Yorkshire, England), the local nativity play was cancelled because they couldn't find a virgin to play mary - finding 3 wise men wasn't easy either!

Beyond His power, No. Nothing is impossible but I will say that would make Him different than I believe Him to be. In heaven there will be no marriage.

Well, if god was real, he could, but he wouldn't because 72 females don't equal 1 male.
