The saint Ved Vyasa divided one fetus into 101 off-springs (The Kauravas - 100 sons and 1 daughter).
Mr. Balaord, so even cloning was prevalent in ancient India.
And of course not to speak of IVF (King Rama and his 2 brothers were born out of IVF technology) and we had even ICBMs and anti-ICBMS (Pasupatha astra and Brahma astra), air crafts (Pushpaka vimana), etc. The technology in anient India was nothing lesser than what the modern world has!!!!

How can I deny when our Prophet himself asked his followers to learn even from the pagan arab war prisoners? He set a great example that secular science that deals with earthly issues are to be found every where and we should embrace it. He traded their life for science - this happened 1400 years ago in the battle of Badr.
This is why islam was able to absorb science from india,china and greek and provided a platform for the flourishing of modern science. George Sarton calls Islam the indispensable bridge which connected the world. You can always see that my messeage never derided or under estimated the contribution from India.It is just that some times they make some unfounded claims and exaggerate a bit.

There is a huge difference though.islam was able to break the philosophiocal boundries that prevented people from critically examining nature and which made people revere them as GODS. This had a profound impact on the world of science-not to mention the importance of exploring nature's properties and there by attesting in the faith of GOD

long before mohammed and his sword culture arrived in arabia, india, persia, the "pagan" arabians, the greeks had very harmonious interaction on both business and cultural fronts. islam never did anything new, islam never created any new philosophy except that murder,rape and loot in the name of moon god allah (by the way allah was the main god of mecca thousand years before the great person mohammed arrived) are all very holy, pious and merciful acts.

The UK-s channel4 -The leading televsion channel of UK say
...Until recently, the era has been glossed over by historians who happily leapt from the fall of the Roman Empire straight to the Renaissance. But it is time for the West to recognize its debt to those Islamic scientists of the past, who forged ahead while Europe stagnated...

Look at all the messages - why a riot in pakistan has to bring the issue of Islam here?

Because common people all over the world have got the impression that your religion must be the root cause of all these killings and bombings, since most of the terrorist bombing happens to involve muslims.
