The suspense! What’s going to be the winner this year? Heat or stampede?
To: Beowulf9
Nothing of value was lost.

As the temperature in Mecca reached 125.24° F. (51.8° C.) on Tuesday, It gets hot in the middle of a desert in the middle of summer. Who knew?

The heat in Phoenix reached these temps last year. I know ones died but not that many. Walking around a cube in that heat, not a good idea.

It’s weather.
NOT a “climate emergency”
Whoever could have imagined it got hot in the desert?

The centuries of this has probably resulted in a massive number of deaths, it is pretty hard to avoid considering what the ritual is and how the desperate want to get there no matter what.

“They circumambulate...”
I thought the was done in the privacy of one’s own bedroom.
Pretty highfalutin word.

Oil causes climate change. The Saudis sell a ton of oil. Therefore, Allah is striking them down for selling oil to the world. That will teach them!

Sounds kinda dirty, if you ask me! (sarc)

It’s just weather , and they say mad dogs and Englishmen go out in the mid day sun so now add or replace dogs and Englishmen with muslims
To: Beowulf9
In northern California, the minimum temps (53-54F) are near a record LOW. So whatever it is, it’s LOCAL, not global.

600 dead out of 1,800,000 = 0.033%
Statistically insignificant.
