If different communities and cultures would turn to their great principles (taught by their religions) then they would find many things that bring them closer, keep them away from conflicts and improve their human qualities.
Sounds nice. But Abdullah heads a dictatorship where only one religion, Islam, can be publicly followed. Saudi citizens face a death sentence if they leave the Islamic faith.
Earlier this month, Abdullah met with Pope Benedict in Vatican City. Don't look for a reciprocal visit by the Pontiff in Mecca: non-Muslims are banned from entering the city.
