Perhaps what we could learn from our Muslim brethren, who are so radical that some are willing to blow themselves up with so many others as suicide bombers. What motivates them to go to such extremes? The carnal reward that is promised to them! While this arrangement and assumption is antithetical with real religion, what we could learn to do is to think more of the reward God has in store for us. Is it selfish to think this way and to motivate ourselves to reach Heaven?
