The creator?

Is that the guy with a beard in between the clouds?

Puny human minds cannot grasp the full magnitude of God. God is not like His creation. Such comparisons are pointless

Like this - The Hubble deep field -
a tiny region of the sky with over 10,000 galaxies:

Just added a poll:

Is it blasphemy to worship a stone?

If your religion involves worshiping a stone, then no.

Are they actually worshipping the stone? Or does it just have some significance?

At least you aren't relying purely on faith - you can touch, see, lick the stone. Praying to the stone for stuff is not going to be any less effective than praying to any intangible spook like God, Allah, Vishnu etc.

you are a joke.
that all you got?

People can read bwian... you keep forgetting.
that's why so many people hold you to points these days...

So got any theory as to why muslims worship/venerate that black stone?

Should we infer from your answer... and i quote

that you actually do judge Muslims after all.
