It's hard to call someone worthless or ignorant when faced with that. Unless you're a Republican, that is. | Upon further review, I have to reply to this again. I must have been tired last night.
You're talking about middle-eastern society. I'm talking about Muslims. Islam didn't appear until like 600AD. The advancements you refer to came from pre-muslim societies like the Phoenecians, Babalonians, and the Persian Empire.
Coincidentally, those were nations mostly made up of, and ruled by white people. They won't teach you that in high school anymore.  | |

"The Islamic Empire, through its massive work of translating Greek and Roman texts into Arabic, learned about the manufacture of glass lenses. Islamic scientist Ibn Sahl (984) developed the first accurate theory of refraction of light. He gave Islamic science the understanding needed to develop all the optical tools and theories later developed in 17th century Europe. "
"Al-Razi, a 9th century Persian physician, made the first major Muslim contribution to medicine when he developed treatments for smallpox and measles. He also made significant observations about hay fever, kidney stones, and scabies, and first used opium as an anesthetic. "
"Al-Khowarizmi , fl. 820, Arab mathematician of the court of Mamun in Baghdad. His treatises on Hindu arithmetic and on algebra made him famous. He is said to have given algebra its name, and the word algorithm is said to have been derived from his name. Much of the mathematical knowledge of medieval Europe was derived from Latin translations of his works."

| That originated in Greece long before the 9th century.
Still, the same question applies. Why did progress stop? Please do go on, but only with something recent. | |

In England, there was this guy... Im not mentioning a name, but he was part of the BNP. He spouted the same stuff to people all over the consett and stanley area (North East England, my home is Stanley.) and recruited alot of people. Anyway, a friend of my family was in a bar one night having a drink with my auntie and her ex boyfriend when this BNP leader got his recruits to stab my auntie's friend several times and beat him almost to death. You know why? Because his dad was Asian. He recovered from the stab wounds and the beating but killed himself. Don't you go on to me about law. THAT was an injustice of the worst kind. Its racsists that need to be wiped out. People that feel the need to beat down verbally and physically, individuals who come to other countries to get away from a life threatening situation or to start a better life for themselves. They have thier own culture, we have ours and they can NEVER change that so they live their own culture day by day peacefully and without complaint to anyone in government about how things should be done. England is a mixed religion society and nobody can change it to just one sect. Quote: |

Arab Muslims are the same way. There are large Christian communities in most arab nations, and they are persecuted for it. | |

I want to clear something up here, before I'm accused of hating everybody who isn't gleaming white.
From left to right:
My stepdaughter and my girlfriend.. Yes, we're all ren faire geeks.
Closer shot of my stepdaughter.
My daughter, my girlfriend, her oldest son.
If you are wondering. I call them my stepkids just because it's easier.
Their father is Portugese, looks just like an arab. I love those kids. I run a D&D game on Sundays for the boys, and the girl goes with us most places we go.
Some racist I am. | |

I think that makes you a big hypocrite.
No surprises there then.
If its any consolation, I believe you when you say you're a racist. Thanks. Find out exactly what to think, next.

caucasians already seem to be a minority in america, and with the allowances of more illegal foreigners to come on over...what difference is their race or religion?
at least foreign muslims will take steps to learn the american language rather than expecting americans to speak a non native tongue. To view links or images in signatures your post count must be 10 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.
