In Old Testament times, Nabonidus (555-539 BC), the last king of Babylon, built Tayma, Arabia as a center of Moon-god worship. Segall stated, "South Arabia's stellar religion has always been dominated by the Moon-god in various variations." Many scholars have also noticed that the Moon-god's name "Sin" is a part of such Arabic words as "Sinai," the "wilderness of Sin," etc. When the popularity of the Moon-god waned elsewhere, the Arabs remained true to their conviction that the Moon-god was the greatest of all gods. While they worshipped 360 gods at the Kabah in Mecca, the Moon-god was the chief deity. Mecca was in fact built as a shrine for the Moon-god.

Really ... and I've been a religious Muslim for over 20 years and I didn't know that I worship the Moon-God????
Tell the one who gave you that piece of info ... he is a total idiot ... what moon God stupid??
You just got the info without even reading it ... that was all about the word Allah ... which means God in Arabic ...
And the word Allah is used by all religions when it comes to Arabic ... so Muslims, Christians and Jews use the word Allah to refer to God in Arabic ...
When will u start to realize the truth ... when will u start searching for the truth instead of blindly hate Islam ???
When will u stop being a Media-Controlled??

Have you ever actually met a Muslim who said he worships Mecca or moon god?
This might have make you feel really happy but sorry to tell you, you are mixing up 2 very separate beliefs just so you can satisfy your hate against Muslims.
No such thing as moon god or Mecca god or Kabba god in Islam.

Looks like Ahmed is going through an identity crisis. And If all religions would try 10% as much as devout muslims to worshop God, the world MAY find peace for once.
Islam is not for the weak, that is why God sent it to the middle east, to the strong ones.
Pilgrimange? The people in the US can't find the self pride to get rid of hunger in the greenest country in the world, they couldn't find the energy for islam.

It is a well known fact that Mecca was built as a shrine to the moon God, educated people out there should research and study this fact just google it and then reply. Muslims should know the truth about their religion.
Once you have studied the truth you are most welcome to convert to christianity we will welcome you with open arms brothers and sisters.
Nobody hates muslims the whole ethos of christianity is to save souls.
PLEASE STUDY YOUR RELIGION LOOK AT WHY MECCA WAS BUILT AND WHO IT WAS BUILT FOR THEN REPLY.
