The determined efforts of twisting History and overlooking what Islam did to Humanity by the Indian text authors are the primary cause of Hatred for Islam and people like Taslima look like here.
Let us hear another woman's view on Islam The Newyork based leading Business Magazine- The Business Week (published by MCGraw Hill)
Says this
....Science today wouldn't be as advanced without so many discoveries from the Muslim world. It's time to reach across today's hurtful barriers ...

There goes the Solid man waving his Jihad flag...arrey baba if you guys are so advanced how come you are down in the pits? all your Muslim countries are ruled by dictators and people like you have no spine to even stand up to them? how can Islam be encouraging to academics when at its very core it stifles free thinking and creativity? All Muslim communities living in the west are easy target for terror activists simply because they cant cope with and adjust to their surroundings. Why keep making great claims for a very mediocre civilization??

Olga Pikovskaya must be under the influence of drugs. Muslim world discovers new ways of torturing mankind, raping women and promoting terrorism and intolerance. No scientific developments have ever taken place in muslim world as Allah does not approve of it. No phtographs, no TV, no Hi-Fi systems, no polio medicines, no anti birth pills, and the list goes on and on. Steal secrets for mass killings is the in thing. Father in laws raping daughter in laws is the in thing.

Solid Man - your name should actually be liquid man, considering your weak intellectual exhibition.
Much of the so-called Islamic advancements in science were actually the Indian civilization's inventions and discoveries, including the number system we use today, which were taken by the Arabs and later passed on to Europe. The numeral system we use today was erroneously for years erferred to as the Arab Number system by Europeans for centuries. The record was much later set straight by European mathematicians who finally acknowledged that it was actualy the Indian number system, which the Arabs borrowed. Similarly other gerat advances in sicence and medicines by ancient Indian civilization was in the field of geometry, surgery, and astronomy.
Pity there was no patenting or copy-right system those days - lot of knowledge was taken from India and passed off as European or Arab inventions.
Watch the documentary on the BBC, if you get the chance, which gives in detail the various discoveries and inventions of ancient India, as compared to Arab discoveries. The Indian list is much more impressive!
