YHWH, Yahweh, Jehovah, adonai, lord, elohim, god, allah, Allah thread.

I remember reading somewhere that on the Day of Judgement, Jews and Christians will be given one last chance to repent and become Muslims, before being cast into a fiery pit.Seems like a fair cop if you ask me - but it does kinda screw up the whole reasoning behind Pascal's (Ali's) Wager against Islam.PE

Should have made this clear - Pascal's wager is basically an appeal to self-interest. That said, if I were using PW alone to choose between the three Abrahamic faiths then I would definitely not choose Islam, as if Islam were true, I'd still have one last chance on the Day of Judgement to repent as a Jew or Christian and get to houri heaven (whereas the same isn't true for Judaism and Christianity, I think).PE

The houris are the name for the fair skinned ever-pleasing 72 virgins that a Muslim male purportedly receives in heaven, as reward for a lifetime of devotion. Although to be fair, I've heard recently that "houri" can also be translated as "raisin". Yes. If Islam was the One True Religion (TM), then Muslims wouldn't need to repent, surely?PE
