RE: all become Muslim. No more war and a worldwide peace! Isn't there a big battle within Islam on Shia vs. Sunni? Which sect should I convert to? Kiwi. MQ would be our Mullah (yeah Mullah Maurice has a nice ring to it). It would be the sect that permits alcohol - but justifies it with a rent provision (similar to the hourly wife provision). No one would keep alcohol in their system.

Shia vs. Sunni? Which sect should I convert to? There's a lot of differences, just like Catholic vs. Protestant, but the main one is the Shias believe in the 12th imam, Mahdi, and the Sunnis don't. Shias want Israel wiped off the face of the map - NOW. The Sunnis not so much. Shias encourage martyrdom, Sunnis not so much. That's really a very simplistic explanation to a very complicated subject. But if you're eager for the 73 virgins and heaven and are willing to strap on a suicide bomb, I'd recommend the Shias.
