I opened this month's edition of National Geographic and read the brief story about the new Mecca Map, which uses concentric circles centered around a pole between Mecca and Mecca's antipodean point to show Islamicists which way to point their addled heads when they pray to their meteor idol. Facing perpendicularly to a circle puts the worshipper's body on a "great circle" path to Mecca, which is the shortest distance. Note: I tried to find a link to this map on the NG site, but no joy.

Apparently a lot of Islamicists - believing as they do that the Earth is flat - have been pointing in entirely incorrect directions.

No wonder their prayers have not been answered. Allah was not listening to Islamicists in Detroit because they had been previously praying in a southeast direction instead of the geo-politicially correct east-northeast direction.

On a similar note, let's discuss this ridiculous Ramadan thing. Ramadan is a month of daylight fasting that Islamicists undergo every year in the Northern Hemisphere's late autumn and early winter. They like to make it seem as though they are sacrificing, but in fact, since once again most Islamicists believe the Earth is flat, there is no compensation for the latitude at which a particular rock worshipper is located to calculate the correct fasting elapsed time. It's simply sunrise to sunset. Clearly, this means that southern hemisphere-residing Islamicists are more devout since they must undergo many more hours of fasting than northern hemisphere-located, perpendicularly-facing, Mecca-concentric-circle map-using converted-Moon Goddess worshippers.

So, the question is: Que es mas Islam? Southern Hemisphere or Northern Hemisphere?
