It was Islam that carried the light of learning through so many centuries, paving the way for Europe’s Renaissance and Enlightenment. It was innovation in Muslim communities that developed the order of algebra; our magnetic compass and tools of navigation; our mastery of pens and printing; our understanding of how disease spreads and how it can be healed. President Barack Obama
VNA have you ever actually been anywhere?? President Obama the man who was going to close Guantanamo Bay. Correction the Magnetic compass was first used by the Chinese in 206, nearly everyone had a form of compass the Vikings etc!
The Greeks & The Romans, Pasteur, Fleming, Napier, Newton, Einstein, Darwin, Mercator just to name a few . So are you actually saying that Brits and the rest of Europe were thick?
Islam that carried the light of learning. I will never deny they did. But they drew influence from Aristotelian philosophy as well as Euclid, Archimedes, Ptolemy and others.
So don't try and make out that everything we have today is down to these guys.
You say I have issues such as Racism of course I do, but do not kid yourself that the people of the middle east are a lot different than me concerning racism.
Having worked with many Arabs , be they from Saudi, Kuwait, UAE, Iraq, Iran, Egypt, Libya. I was happy to take their money. They only employed me because they needed my skills.
Islam carried the lamp of learning, shame they forgot to top the fucker up with the oil they haven't a clue how to get out of the ground.
