How many sacred places are there in the world?
There is only one, but it is VERY big. __________________ It would depend on how you define "sacred". If you were a moderate adherent of any of the three great world religions of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, you might share common ideas of which places are sacred. If you were a member of a radical sect of any of those religions, you might consider the purportedly sacred places of the other two to be profane. Secular persons or those with religious or spiritual views differing from those of the big three religions might consider all places everywhere sacred, or only certain places, based on such widely varying and even conflicting criteria that the word "sacred" can have no functional meaning for this question. Even if one were to be specific and ask, "How many sacred places are there, according to Islam?" it would be very difficult to give an exact answer, as varying sectarian belief would differ on which sites are sacred. This would apply to any religion, not just the big three religions. The only meaningful operational definition of "sacred" is "whatever you personally, or you and your co-believers as a group deem sacred". Unfortunately, using that definition, the question itself becomes one that only you personally, or you and your co-believers as a group, can answer for yourselves: "How many places in the world do I/we deem sacred?"
