-Patents are evidence of a nations creative activities: new drugs, electronics, satellites, the internet, food processing, cars — everything we need to live better lives: Total patents held, worldwide, 3.8 million; US holds 2.1 million; ALL Muslim nations hold only 1,000.
Muslims, two billion of us have access to the Internet. For the first time in Islam’s history we can SEE the degradation your religion inflicts on mankind. You can no longer hide behind your phony “Islam is a religion of peace!” mantra.
And where would ANY of that be without Science? Hmmmmmm?
no where, they are strongly connected.
Apart from the fact that many Muslim scientists have contributed greatly to early science (while Christians were stuck in their Dark Ages), here’s a list of 1001 inventions from Muslims. At least TRY to be honest and go through it, which is probably expecting too much from you.

The advancement of a civilization is not just about science, although the muslims were pioneers in mathematics, medicine, botany, geography, astronomy etc. The first universities in the world were in the Islamic world.
The advancement, is the morals that you follow. On the Day of Judgment, Allah will not be impressed only with the velcro you may have invented, but by how you cared for you brother and your duties towards the rest of humanity.
You have certainly done yor home work, excellent itinerary of avhienements.
