you can come up with thousand different stories of Muslims wounding India.Muslims always respected India for some of its great minds.
But you bigots dont know how much fundamental discoveries Muslims made..
One great fundamental change is the smashing of concepts which gave divinity and revered to objects such as MOON

How many Muslim noble laurates are
today Of course only 3 (Excluding peace prize)
This is a applaing number given the hundreds of Nobel prize winners
But these people forget the fact that
Nobel prize was established only in the last century at a time Muslims lands are
occupied by colonisers.
Have you forgotten India produced only a single a noble laureate for science (exclduing the niece of CV Raman) in those years?
what you want to call Indians then?
Unedcucated just because there are no sufficent nobel prize winners?
How many Nobel prize newton won?
How many Leonardo davinci won?
How many Bernollie won?

@balaord
still u lack basic understanding of Hinduism ....every actions in Hinduism is intertwined with science and nature ....

my ancestors were not fools to say that Moon and Son are god ,but rather they understood how those celestial objects can be used to welfare of human beings ..

for example ,Surya Namaskaram (preying to Sun in early morning ) ..they understood that at early morning the rays of Sun had a benefical impact on Humans .....

if asked to do it regularly ,none will obey ..so they brought all this into to the realms of Religion and spirituality ...... i can keep on saying abt that ....

understand -HINDUSIM is a life science and way of life style ...and we Hindu's were masters of astronomy .....

Guys - Back it with evidence from a neutral source..Dont give me some rubbish blogs as a proof.
havent you seen that I always given a link from a credible academy?
It is true great mindss liked here in India and I am proud of that as a Indian.But get over this obsession with vedic myth which is nothing but giberrish.
No science historian worth his salt said anything about these things..
