Guilt works really well on people who want to change their behavior but the feeling of guilt has to be present. Shame on the other hand works for those who don't have the ability to feel guilt. The Judeo-Christian tradition is one of trusting in what Lincoln called "the better angels of our nature". While Islam, as Skybird stated was founded by and often, especially in its early years, dominated by what today we would call criminals of all stripes.

It is not then suprising that in the US the fastest growing religion among our prison population is Islam. Remember no one in prison is ever guilty, either actually or philisophically.
