Absolutely not, and I was offended by your comment of “appreciate the art and architecture of the statues.” For your information statues existed in Makkah a long time ago (before Islam was being spread in Makkah,) and Muslims suffered and were tortured by those people who fought Islam religion and wanted to worship the statues. Thank god statues no longer exist in Makkah. With this limited information about the history of Islam, I hope you understood why I was offended by your comment. Of course you can research about the history of Islam to further understand Islam and understand what my fellow Muslims went through back then.

This thread is not about Islam, so I kindly ask you guys to stick to the thread

If you don't want to go to NZ, then just don't go. You don't need to justify your decisions to us.

Very useful comments to add to the discussion! Thanks guys! But I was responding to a comment, so I felt like “justifying” myself.

Thank you for the information. I appreciate it

Conclusion: New Zealand is not for me.
