I don't know whether to laugh or cry...

I almost put this in the jokes, etc forum, but decided it's not really funny.  Mods, delete if it is not appropriate for Tentmaker.

The gist of it is that these guys think they can send Muslims to Hell with a special bullet, and MAKE something that defeats the will and plan of God.  Crank/prank/novelty product?  It reminds me of those silver nitrate bullets for werewolves in those Underworld movies.  Would it send Jews to Hell as well?  Technological theology... :doh:

It's a play on their fears. If they die in Jihad, heaven is guaranteed (in their belief), BUT, if they die with pork in them (in their belief) they will not be permitted into heaven. So it depends on if the muslim wants to "risk it."
Dying in Jihad without pork in them and 72 virgins (I don't know why they think that is heaven)
or the pork from a bullet nullifying the dying in Jihad.

Jihawg ammo... put some ham in moHAMed... at least they're witty...  :doh:

Maybe this is it.
Die in Jihad, get 72 virgins.
Die with pork in you, the 72 virgins you get remain virgins. :doh:

[lomarah]

LOL... and I agree.... 72 "virgins" (wives? concubines?) Whatever they may be I hear one of us is hard enough to live with.  :laughing7:

That is the dumbest thing I have seen all day. I don't get why they're doing this though because most Christians believe Muslims go to Hell anyways because they don't believe Jesus is their savior.

It's not about that. The idea behind it is that terrorists  hope to enter muslim heaven; but can only do so if not defiled by pork. So that would make them think twice before attacking.

The British used to sew Muslims in pig skins and Hindus in cow hides for the same reason.

In case of the bullets I think it's more a sales trick and the buyers mainly do so for the "fun factor". I bet the sales went up because they got worldwide free coverage for their shop.

Right WW, if it ain't about love,it's about money... and then there's the combo the love of money and money for "love" :Chinscratch:
