That is why I am making sure I don't go to Hell where there are no virgins anywhere.

No, you don't get whatever you want in heaven.
Matthew 22:30 "At the resurrection people will neither marry nor be given in marriage; they will be like the angels in heaven."

I'm not sure what bible you are reading from but I've not read that one. Jesus said there were no marriages in heaven, that we are all like brothers and sisters . Ask yourself what good would sex be in heaven when it is our spirit that goes, not our body. If you are living with a religion that teaches such as this then I would suggest that you take a look at it for what it is, physical, not spiritual.
Physical sex is for procreation, not recreation as man has made it. You will also realize that a virgin has no knowledge of sex so wouldn't you want someone experienced. I think this may be a Muslim concept but I have not found it in the Quran either, so what religion did you not say you are in?

You clearly miss the point. That is lusting, which is a sin. That is adultery, which is a sin. That is fornication, which is a sin. You can only have sex with your wife. You can only have one wife. What you are saying would be classified as adultery since you can have only one wife (assuming you get married). Not to mention these "virgins" would be sinning (fornication, lust, adultery). What you are looking for is a warmer destination called hell. This is typical ignorance thinking you shall attain whatever you want. Get over it. You can't get everything you want. No virgins in hell? Think again. Not having sex does not make you pure. There are plenty of other ways to sin. Good luck on your quest to Heaven. With your view on the Bible you are going to need it.

The Koran talks about virgins, the Bible does not. The Bible does not say that we will get what ever we want. It does say that we will be given new bodies and that marriage will be different but doesn't explain how.
Matthew 22:23-33
That same day the Sadducees, who say there is no resurrection, came to him with a question. "Teacher," they said, "Moses told us that if a man dies without having children, his brother must marry the widow and have children for him. Now there were seven brothers among us. The first one married and died, and since he had no children, he left his wife to his brother. The same thing happened to the second and third brother, right on down to the seventh. Finally, the woman died. Now then, at the resurrection, whose wife will she be of the seven, since all of them were married to her?" Jesus replied, "You are in error because you do not know the Scriptures or the power of God. At the resurrection people will neither marry nor be given in marriage; they will be like the angels in heaven.

the Bible doesn't say we receive whatever we desire in Heaven, it says that Heaven is a place of perfection. whether or not that means 931434141054359243 virgins will be roaming the place, i have no idea. you'll have to call up God on that one.

God gives us only what he deems is good and right for us. Asking for a virgin every week is selfish and self-serving... it sure isn't taking those poor virgins into account.
He said that we don't receive because we ask amiss... or with the wrong motives. Heaven isn't about fulfilling what you want, especially sexual fantasies, it's about being with God forever. Eternity.

Summer B
plz read QURAN carefully then answer ok
what ISLAM says about virgines
Answer:
1. Hoor mentioned in the Qur’an
The word hoor occurs in the Qur’an in no less than four different places:
(1) In Surah Dukhan chapter 44, verse 54
"Moreover, We shall join them to companions
With beautiful, big and lustrous eyes."
[Al-Qur’an 44:54]
(2) In Surah Al-Tur chapter 52 verse 20
"...And We shall join them to companions, with beautiful,
big and lustrous eyes."
[Al-Qur’an 52:20]
(3) In Surah Rahman chapter 55 verse 72
"Companions restrained (as to their glances), in goodly pavilions."
[Al-Qur’an 55:72]
(4) In Surah Al-Waqiah chapter 56 verse 22
"And (there will be) companions with beautiful, big and lustrous eyes."
[Al-Qur’an 56:22]
2. Hoor Translated as Beautiful Maidens
Many translators of the Qur’an have translated the word hoor as ‘beautiful maidens’ especially in the Urdu translations. If hoor means ‘beautiful maidens’ or girls, then they are meant only for the men. Hence, what will the women get if they enter Paradise?
3. Meaning of Hoor
The word hoor is actually the plural of ahwar (applicable to man) and of haura (applicable to woman) and signifies a person having eyes characterized by hauar a special quality bestowed upon a good soul, male or female in paradise and it denotes the intense whiteness of the white part of the spiritual eye.
The Qur’an describes in several other verses that in paradise you will have azwaj which mean a pair or spouse or companion which means you will have spouses or companions pure and holy (mutaharratun means pure, holy).
"But give glad tidings to those who believe and work righteousness, that their portion is gardens, beneath which rivers flow. Every time they are fed with fruits therefrom, they say: "Why, this is what we were fed with before", for they are given things in similitude; and they have therein companions pure (and holy); and they abide therein (forever)".
[Al-Qur’an 2:25]
"But those who believe and do deeds of righteousness, We shall soon admit to Gardens, with rivers flowing beneath – their eternal home; therein shall they have companions pure and holy: we shall admit them to shades, cool and ever deepening". [Al-Qur’an 4:57]
Therefore the word hoor has no specific gender. Mohammad Asad has translated the word hoor as spouse and Abdullah Yusuf Ali as companion. Therefore according to some scholars a man in paradise will have a hoor that is a beautiful maiden with beautiful big and lustrous eyes and a woman in paradise will get a man with beautiful big and lustrous eyes.
4. Women will get something exceptional in Paradise
Many scholars say that in context, the word hoor used in the Qur’an refers only to ladies since gents are addressed. A reply that would be accepted by all types of people would rather be the answer given in the Hadith when a similar question was posed that if a man gets a hoor, a beautiful Maiden in Paradise, then what will the women get? The reply was that the women will get that which the heart has not desired for, the ear hasn’t heard off and the eye hasn’t seen, indicating that even the women will get something exceptional in Paradise.

The Bible says that God will give you what HE thinks is best for you.
As you are obviously making a joke, I doubt you will receive your desire.

we are lead to believe we can get what ever we want in heaven, no matter what it is and here's why... there is no such thing as life after death, and that which keeps religions going want to you to think you are doing it for some reward after death... when you are dead it's too late to get your life back... why do we suffer for our religions because being part of a religion drains your body of life that is why we are told that there will be a reward after life... just because a religion says it's so doesn't mean nature will comply to it... there is no life after death... through karma we are meant to be rewarded or punished through this life for it is the only one we are given...
