Re: Apple's "Mecca Project" Provokes Muslim Reaction
There are hundreds of places that are called mecca. the muslims dont own the word. "A vacation mecca" some romantic beach resorts etc... Just cuz the building looks like the kaaba doesnt give us the right to get furious.
Are you suggesting that if you own a house that you love so much.. nobody else can build a house just like yours? I think if someone else builds a house just like urs, he is only appreciating ur design. If this building is indeed designed after the kaaba, then I guess the artist was appreciating what kaaba had to offer.
