Name me one great Islamic Scientific Breakthrough in the past 100 years (that has been discovered or devloped in a Muslim country) ?

Well I don't really understand why you want something from the past 100 years, considering most of the major scientific/mathematical breakthroughs were achieved way before that time and laid the foundation for modern day science. But heres just a few breakthroughs these 'backwards -insert derogratory term here-' discovered.

Ah a bit of both, I read their last line as being your first for some reason!

I am curious what you think the British government should have done about it though - you imply they've done nothing?

1. That was not my question.

2. if westerners were not generous enough to share our knowledge Muslims would be living in the dark ages(although a lot of Muslim countries still resemble the dark ages).

3. Muslims had **** all to do with renaissance.

4. There is no proof that without Muslims we would still be living in the middle ages.

5. We have contributed more to world knowledge than Muslims ever have. Islamic discovery is pale in comparison to western discovery.

So you are not able to answer my question ? I asked what has Islam contributed in the past 100 years ?

INstead you just gave me a small list of Arabic inventions many centuries ago ( a lot of them invented or devloped before Islam existed)

So, a Jewish person who hates a Nazi is the same as a Nazi who hates Jews, yes? Or, a black person who hates the KKK is no different from a KKK member who hates blacks.

That's what you're basically saying.

The difference is that your intolerance of something must be justified.

My intolerance of Islam is justified. Islam's intolerance of all the things it is intolerant of is not justified. 'It is my religion' is not a justification for anything.

Judging by the links I provided earlier, it would certainly seem that way, yes.

70% of British people support the death penalty.

Why is this relevant? I don't really see how not believing in evolution is a threat to democracy...

No, it's not you ignorant ****. Pakistan's Inter-Services Intelligence Agency supports certain factions of the Afghan Taliban as it aids Pakistan's national security. Before you get on your moral ****ing high horse about this remember that this is a strategic not a religious decision. Also keep in mind that you have no right to criticise others when your own country appeased the Nazis, refused to stop the Rwandan genocide, traded with Pinochet, was an ally of Saddam when he committed genocide, supports brutal dictatorships in the Middle East and didn't think to stop the Holocaust even when they knew about it.

Did you not read my reply?

Those discoveries were not in the past 100 years, they were many many centuries ago. I asked what has Islam contributed to knowledge in the past 100 years.

Well, how about you tell us about all the inventions Christianity has come up with in the last 100 years?

No, that is what you are saying. You believe that the rare instance of violence from a group following an extreme version of a religion is comparable to the horrendous oppression experienced by both the Jews and black americans. I mean really?

Pretty much

The rest of what you said has no relevance nor does it justify occupation.

Or, if the other foul Abrahamic religion of Christianity hadn't plagued Europe, we would never have had the Dark Ages, the Islamic world would need never have bothered with science, and we wouldn't have lost 300 years of progress. We'd be much further ahead.

The only reason it is referred to as the 'Islamic Golden age' is because of the comparison by the rest of the world at the time - and the rest of the world was under the grip of Islam's big brother at the time. Speaking relative to what the Europeans acheived before the Dark Ages, and what they would have achieved had the Dark Ages not come along, the Islamic world achieved relatively little.

The moral of the story is that all religion plagues all progress.

Those discoveries were not in the past 100 years, they were many many centuries ago. I asked what has Islam contributed to knowledge in the past 100 years.

It has no relevance to the objective of removing Swedish forces from Afghanistan, but in your mind - as an apologist for Islamist terrorism, this is objective justifies the action. For most of the rest of us, it does not, especially when Swedish peace keepers are a far better alternative to savage barbarians like the Taleban.
