Does God have human needs and wants ?

[brian464]

If I remember correctly: rivers of milk, having the opportunity to listen to the voice  of Allah, palaces, if I'm not mistaken, the people getting served drinks by Allah Himself, people probably getting the opportunity to meet with their loved ones, or even the prophets.

There is no sex in heaven ?

[AhmadFarooq]

If that is what the residents of heaven desire, than it will be there.

As I said before, "stop mincing words and speak plainly." It appears you were trying to push the discussion towards this point from the time you started asking about rewards of heaven about 5 days ago. And by the way, nice job on continuously moving from one topic to another, probably with the objective of finally finding a good argument against Islam.

Was there a reason you left the sex part out when you listed the rewards in heaven (in your previous post )  ?

[AhmadFarooq]

Because it has been becoming increasingly clear to me that you are just trying to bait the other person in saying certain specific things. If you already knew the rewards, why were you asking me?

If you wanted to talk about this subject, you should have just said so, about a week ago when you tried to push the discussion towards this point. This is the third time, I'm saying this: "Stop mincing words and speak plainly."
It is apparent to me that you are not a Muslim, you have changed the subject multiple times in this discussion, apparently trying hard to finally catch the other person without an answer. Topics that were explained to you in one post, even though you did not continue to argue on that topic (presumably because you couldn't), you continued to debate on that same issue with another person in a way that showed complete ignorance of the arguments that I had already given.

Give me one good reason that I'm wrong, otherwise this is probably going to be my last post on this thread.

The subject of the post is " Does God have human needs and wants ? " and the answer is pretty clear: according to muslims/christians/jews,  God wants people to worship Him ( a very human want ) and in return,

 heaven is the reward ( a very human response ).

and in the case of certain religions ( muslims being a part ) , sex is also part of the list of rewards.

 My question is , how far does sex go in heaven ?  Is it only with a person's wife or does the person have a  choice of multiple partners, in addition to the wife on earth ?

[brian464]

Muslims believe that before the start of this test, they were asked by God whether they want to go through with it or not.

Allah must have revealed to the "test takers" that failing to worship Allah would result in being burned alive in hell forever

[brian464]

They agreed to be tested, therefore according to this covenant, they have to follow God's commands.

Could any reasonable person agree to a test when failure ( to worship Allah )  means being burned alive forever ?

 Allah must have revealed to the "test takers" that the devil failed to worship and, at least, one of the "test takers" would fail to worship and the result is being burned alive without end

[brian464]

they have to follow God's commands.

The command of worshipping only Allah seems a little too human to me since humans have the tendency of demanding or commanding worship of themselves (  abusive husbands tend to command worship )
