That's the one spot on the whole Earth where Muslims can practice and worship Islam in complete peace and brotherhood, we'd all hand in our live's just like the Muslims did in the 7th century under Muhammad if they ever tried to infiltrate that land.  That's like our utopia.

sorry if this sounds crass... but.

how can they prove it?

i mean would infinite (being white) walking up and saying 'yeah i'm muslim' suffice?

its not like you get a membership card.  ???

I think thats kind of messed up. If "they" want to visit it does not mean "they" wanna infiltrate and ruin the worship.

Uhh this has nothing to do with the mecca thing, jus here to spit sum information on my religion.  
Gurdwaras[Sikh temples] are open to all people of all religions and are generally open 24 hours a day. Some Gurdwaras Temples also provide temporary accommodations for visitors or pilgrims. In the "Langar" all sit together and food is cooked and served by volunteers, this food is available at all times.  This community kitchen is meant for providing food to all devotees, and visitors. It is a symbol of equality, fratemity and brotherhood. It is here that the high and the low, the rich and the poor, the leamed and the ignorant, the kings and the paupers, all share the same food sitting together in one row. This kitchen is run by the common contributions of the Sikhs. The institution of Langar (Common Kitchen) is instrumental in creating social equality among the whole mankind.
Only vegetarian food is served so that no person may be offended and all people of all religions can sit together to share a common meal irrespective of any dietary restrictions.  peace

Latter Day Saints have churches, and temples.  Anybody's allowed to church, to visit, or just check us out, or eat, or whatever, but to go to the temple, only members with a recommend can go... basically, the bishop interviews you, to see if you're living a good life, LOL (not judging you)... they ask you questions, like 'do you believe in Jesus Christ as the son of god" stuff like that, and if you pass the little interview, you get a temple reccomend.  There's a ton of latter Day Saints that can't even go to our temples, because they don't have a reccomend, so I understand what Infinite's saying.

also, remember, in the bible, Sick, Old, poor, etc. weren't allowed in the temple.  Of course, Jesus tripped off that and got pretty mad about it, so I guess it would be bad to try and keep afflicted people out of mecca, lol.
