No mecca, no Islam. After 1,400 years, the "supreme, perfected and immutable religion" can't go from the 5 Pillars of Islam to the 3 Pillars. Nor will they chant, robotically, "Our god used to be greater."
No mecca, no islam.
Travis, a question for you, since you are studying this:
I have read that the most extreme jihadis WANT Mecca destroyed on the premise that praying to the black meteor is a form of idolatry.
Have you encountered this stance in your studies?
