      Because it isn’t real. Unlike the very real humans who died doing this and the very real humans running Saudia Arabia who allowed this to happen.

    Allah: “As faithful Muslims, I command you to make a pilgrimage to the desert in the middle of June.”

    Muslims: “Yes, O Lord!” [Proceed to die of heat exhaustion.]

    Allah: “Ha ha! Fuck you!” [Goes off to hang out with the virgins those guys didn’t get for not dying as martyrs.]

    Sorry… just trying to imagine how many people of any deistic faith wouldn’t have unnecessarily killed themselves over the centuries if they just accepted their god didn’t exist.
