Its like saying Skidmore, Owings, and Merrell built the Great Pyramids.(or did they!!!!?)

Comparing Abraham building the Kaaba (not entirely unfeasable) to Jesus building the pyramids (utterly unfeasable) is more absurd than the point you're ranting about. . .
The original Kaaba itself might not have been all that spectacular of a structure to begin with. . . the current structure (not built by Abraham) is merely a cube shaped building about 40 feet high. . . so even if the claim is that Abraham built it, it wouldn't be that hard to beleive in my book. . .
