Tell these people they are going to be monks when they get to "Heaven" and they would wail like banshees! But offer them fresh fruit, fresh water, and fresh women...and their imaginations are all afired! Ain't that the truth! I think this might be heaven...

PIPES: Muslim Russia? (such a Darwinist world, its still about tribal, race, religion, ethnicity & nationalism, same as it ever was) washingtontimes.com And over in India changing a little, simple sanitation & toilets have become an important topic now, heaven can wait Indian Hard-Liner Narendra Modi Leads and should win Prime Minister Race online.wsj.com When thousands of terrified Muslims fled their homes during religious riots in the state of Gujarat in 2002, the state's Hindu-nationalist chief minister opposed setting up relief camps, saying these would be "child-making factories." After alluding to polygamy and high birthrates in the Muslim community, Narendra Modi declared: "There is a need to teach a lesson to those people who are expanding their population." The speech reinforced Mr. Modi's image as a Hindu hard-liner. Three years later, the U.S. denied Mr. Modi a visa, responding to allegations that he hadn't done enough to stop the 2002 rioting, in which mobs killed more than 1,000 people, most of them Muslims. Now, in national elections that start Monday, Mr. Modi has sought to distance himself from religious politics. Facing off against Rahul Gandhi, the 43-year-old scion of India's powerful Nehru-Gandhi political clan, whose Congress party has governed India since 2004, Mr. Modi has positioned himself as a champion of economic development and no-nonsense government. He cites growth and industrialization under his leadership in Gujarat and says all of India will enjoy the same if he becomes premie "I am known to be a Hindu-nationalist leader," Mr. Modi said in one of his first speeches after becoming the prime ministerial candidate for the Bharatiya Janata Party, or BJP. But "my real thought is toilets first, temples later."
