You know what time it is? It's Mecca TIME!

''"Mecca is the direction all Muslims face when they perform their daily prayers.

The call was issued at a conference held in the Gulf state of Qatar under the title: Mecca, the Centre of the Earth, Theory and Practice.

One geologist argued that unlike other longitudes, Mecca's was in perfect alignment to magnetic north.

He said the English had imposed GMT on the rest of the world by force when Britain was a big colonial power, and it was about time that changed. "

So, basically, they want everyone start using Mecca as the 0 longitudinal point

It's the latest, zany thing those silly Muslims are coming up with. Oh, what will they think of next!?

I always thought the Great Pyramid was supposed to be the geographical center of the earth.
