Mystery unravelled? Can promise of after life affect this life?

Interesting article. The article questions whether a promise of luxuries after life can motivate a person in this life.

Personally, I do not believe any promise assuring me a future benefit and I would laugh off any promise of luxuries that will come my way after life. However, I acknowledge that I am slightly “different” from normal people (you can guess it from my duel with Kejri crowd). The article itself does not conclude and leaves us to make a guess.

I have always wondered what motivates terrorists to resort to inhuman and barbaric acts. Is it such promises of life of luxury after death? Anger against successful cultures? Misinterpretation of religious books and verses? Desire to regain glories of Ottaman era? Lack of emotions and compassion? Money and power? Acute desire to live off someone else’s labor (Just like our communist and socialist friends)? Some defective genes which prompt them to behave the way they do? It is time some psychologist make the comprehensive study and come up with a profile. There are enough sample rotting in Guantanamo. If Obama does not grant access, then Pakistan and Somalia has sufficiently large number of sympathisers who could be bribed that they may volunteer. Another study should also be made of people who either support or at least never condemn the acts of terrorists. They can, for that purpose, select either Digvijay, Mamta, MMS or Kejri.

I am confused. I honestly do not understand what prompts a terrorist to commit a barbaric act. If someone knows on CD, they may share their opinion.

The major motivation is ... activity with a goal.
If societies fail to engage youth in rewarding activities and give them achievement satisfactions ... they turn their attention/ energies into other things that may include anti-social / national activities. They are the target people for those bad guys for brain washing ( promising life of luxury is one of their many tools for those who are fed up with current living).

Jaisi Karni Waisi Bharni Naa Maane To Karke Dekh
Jannat Bhi Hai Jahannum Bhi Hai Na Maane Toh Marke Dekh

As they say, people are free to choose, but every choice has a consequence...Good Luck...

I fully respect your choice or decision, if you choose to die and go to "Jannat".
Just don't take the rest of us with you. we would like to live and enjoy this life. :-)

And I truly respect your choice NOT to believe in afterlife and promise of heaven. But I guess when it comes to "Death"...Nobody has a choice
So you live and enjoy....


......Alas every soul will taste death....And what is the life of this world except the enjoyment of delusion.

I have a choice - to not meet death with the faithfuls. As Rajagopal said, if someone wants to taste the 'Jannat', we are not interested for company.
