The BBC has reported a meeting of Muslim scientists and clerics in Qatar,

Maybe they should get together with the Christian scientists who argue
that
the earth is around 6000 years old.

Comment (Tongue-in-cheek):-
It could also be a simple error in syntax. Hasn't someone dropped the
comma - "Mecca, mean time" - just to give it another hyped-up Muslim
connotation? You know how poor English journalists syntax skills are these
days, especially when it comes niggling reports about Muslim bagatelles.
