thanks , intresting to read those aspect of it.I have been following your conversation , have not joined in because I think Human life is more important than some stone structure.
But you are right that all main stream Rabbis prohibit going up the temple mount , since no one knows for sure exactly where the holly place of the temple was located.
I thought it worth mentioning , that the third prophesied temple that is supposed to come at the end of days , is not something that man can build by itself. As it is supposed to represent a situation where man will have a direct connection to God.
If you remember , both temples where built in a time when we still had living prophets walking among us.
If some man attempts to build it on his own today , it would be just another house of bricks and stone , with no spiritual value what so ever , and of those we have plenty of.
Even worse, it would be the source of conflict rather than peace , not what was promised by the prophets.
Here is how the prophet Isaiah describes it :
" And it shall come to pass in the last days, that the mountain of the LORD'S house shall be established in the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills; and all nations shall flow unto it. "
Isaiah 2:2

by the way , the holy site is supposed to be somewhere inside the first temple , and we knew in time of Herod they extendd mount temple . I wonder if the ban on entering mount temple is just on its original area or entering the extended area is also banned?
