He-he. Right, sure, uh-huh. You forgot the brain surgery developed
by the Africans -- you don't think the Africans were drilling holes
in their victims, er, "patients" head just for torture did they?

The Arabs PRESERVED Greek and Roman culture through the dark ages.
The Arabs did NOT have much of anything to do with law, YOU FUCKING IDIOT!
Anyone with but an ounce of intellect would have KNOWN that the
Moslem culture basically prevents the concept of DWEM secular law,
because the Koran ALREADY has all the "law" needed.

And, since you are oblivious to this, writing existed in Greece oih, some
THOUSANDS OF YEARS BEFORE THE ARABS OF THE TIME!

As for the Chinese invented chemistry, WHERE did you get THAT non-fact?
You know, atomic and molecular theory, covalent bonds, theory of
combustion, perioditic table, ...

And "the Japanese had a thriving artistic, literary, and musical culture
at a time" is silly -- I'm sure manyt Goomba-lands had a thriving blah
blah as well.

But the REALITY is that DWEM is better -- you don't see horders of
religious people joining Shinto-ism do you? Or Hollywood producing
Kabuki dramas? And hey, look at all those Japanese classical music
pieces played on MTV ...

So many Japanese kids use knives and forks, and DON'T know how to
use chop sticks that Japanese cultural preservation socoeities are
very worried ...


So, how about the LOX steel production techniques? Aneasthetics?
English common law or equivalents? Equal treatment of women?

Anything beyond Bongo-land thug-ism?
