As far a a tower of Babel is concerned, God smote that because of human pride. they were trying to deliberately reach Heaven; God. We aren't proposing sky cities for that reason. Done with foresight and a meticulously studied understanding of human social dynamics and a hightened sense of environmental consciousness vertical cities could provide unprecidented contributions towards reducing a variety of pollutants. Lets face it, people won't have to get into a car to go to work, or to shop, or to visit friends, and family. Let's not also forget that it will help reduce human encroachement upon wilderness habitats by putting us humans in the sky instead of cutting down another acre of trees just so a handful of people can have a condo to live in.

OTOH, this is business, very big business in the Gulf and the return on these investments are huge. But again, I agree with you that a lot more should be done in other fields like research and science. Let's pray for them :) Well, you have a point.

For God's sake, this is just a waste of money. Furthermore it's implications on the environment must be disastrous! I just wish Arabs would use their money to aim for better achievements (research centres and what not) instead of building the biggest and the tallest. THIS IS INSANE! :| :| :|
