Did you know Athiest/Heretic Scientists teamed up with Islamic Mullahs to spark the Renaissance in Europe ?
I agree with much (but not all) of what you say. I have long known that algebra was an Islamic invention. The West knows what little we do of Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, and other important Greeks only because many of their most important works were translated into Arabic and preserved. During the dark ages the Catholics went on a book-burning rampage and systematically destroyed much evidence of pre-Christian civilization. Thankfully, early in the Renaissance the Arabic versions were translated into Latin and thus we know of them today. (Now I know that Euclid’s “Elements” was similarly preserved.) There is no doubt, the West owes much to Islam for igniting the Renaissance. (Loved the links you provided.
