Islam: A religion that allows a man to have up to four wives at any given time and also to divorce them as often as he likes. Which hot-blooded man wouldn't find such benefits most attractive?

As a bonus, Islam also permits the killing of one's opponents in the course of the Islamic conquest of any territory, an endeavor in which one is rewarded with seventy-two virgins in heaven if one is martyred on the battlefield or in what's otherwise known as Islamic Jihad, or holy war, while also permitting the killing of one's detractors following the imposition of Islamic law throughout all conquered lands. Which simpleton wouldn't find such privileges most empowering and attractive?
