    More so as to how invasive it is. As I said, it's not comparable to church bells ringing every hour. It's comparable go a Catholic cathedral... setting up a loud system in their tower and broadcasting the Lord's prayer across the town twice daily. I've never been a fan of "freedom from religion", but the function of the minaret is a bit much.

    I don't think they're really symbols of occupation

    Your history in the second and third paragraph of your post is off, but I don't want to get off topic. If you would like to discuss the history of it, I'd be glad to in a new thread in the "history" area. Just send me a pm.

    But, why not?

    Architecture is an art and mosques are beautiful only with the minarets!
