72 White Grapes

I stumbled upon this story from the International Herald Tribune last week and I got more than a little enjoyment out of it. Now that the Koran is receiving similar scrutiny to what the Bible has been receiving for years, some pillars of Islamism may be getting a revision. For instance, there is some question as to whether martyrs receive 72 virgins or 72 grapes when they get to paradise. Imagine the kick in the balls that would be. You are some hard up Islamist schmuck and you think you are going to be overwhelmed with pooty up in paradise, and Allah hands you a bundle of grapes, pats you on the ass and sends you on your way.
