What about minarets and mosques?

Hahaha. Shit bait but tnx for the laugh.

I see no proofs

It is, seriosusly, at least in Belgrade, western countries and some UAE wanted to build skyscrapers and the goverment was like "no way".
People were "wtf" and thats it.
Look at the pic, that temple has highehst altitude point at the top, and that something to be "respected", I guess church has waay too much power today. Do you see somthing bigger?
There are taller buidlings that are far away and builded on the lower ground.

I don't think so.That law is really retarded

As a libertarian, I believe that freedom and competition is enabled. Imagine if buildings became bigger, then the churches would have to grow too, to compete. We would have rely big churches and religion would grow.

That's why no one in Europe can afford to buy property or pay rent.

that's actually true

Can confirm, maximum legal height for buildings is 100m. The only building higher than the limit is the cathedral in Zagreb at 106m.

This is stupid as fuck

there's a tower who's taller than Saint Peter's Basilica in Rome and it's something like 120m
