I think the anti-woman thing supports one of my theories. In a repressive culture where corporeal delights are not to be embraced, what is a gay, misogynistic man to do? From what I've read, which granted, isn't all that much, it is my understanding that martyrs are denied no pleasure in heaven because there is no such thing as sin there.

If you were a gay or even straight, but desiring unusual or unconventional gratification and your religion denied that to you here on Earth, having it in Heaven may seem a good alternative to living here and having sinful thoughts.

All this is just speculation, though. I certainly don't think I'm one to have any particular insight into the mind of religious zealots - it is just way outside my ken. I've got to figure that anything this extreme is coming from the three F's of the reptilian cortex: Fight, Flee, F___.
