Stop the jihad!

I was reading today about the 72 virgins that Islamic blowhards (and I mean this term literally) are counting on.

Turns out that the number 72 is not in the Koran -- that's a later embellishment. So, the number you get may be less.

Even more disturbing, a Muslim scholar suggests that the Arabic passage in question could just as well be translated white grapes or raisins!

Now, that would be a problem!

It's gotta be hard to keep the motivation level up when the reward is a six-pack of Sunkists.
