Before anything, there was a big hole called Chaos. Then Mother Earth emerged. She had a son called Uranus, who was the sky, with whom she had sons together. Rain fell from Sky to Earth making plants grow and animals appear.
Their first kids were one-eye monsters who were banished into the Underworld. Later, human-shaped giants were born and became the first Gods and Goddesses.
One was in charge of creating the human race. After two tries ( the first ones couldn't have children so they died out, the second ones were evil so they were exterminated), he finally got it right.

This Creation story was believed for over a period of 7000 years. It finally died out to be replaced with the Christian one. Have we evolved really?
btw, it's Greek mythology. Do you think one day, they ll be talking about Christian "mythology" as well?

How did the Muslims create such a cosmopolitan society in Spain which sparked the Renaissance ?

Muslims, Jews and Scientists from Europe created a cosmopolitan society of peace and mutual co-existance.

Islamic scholars of Religon (Mullahs,Imams,Ulama) were also scientists since the Quran encouraged the Muslims to look into science to see the power of God.

Muslim and Jewish scholars along with some Heretic Christians or "enlightened" scientists created a "JEWEL" in Europe.

Science, Mathematics,Astronomy, Philosphy etc. were discussed and studied with all three faiths living in harmony and peaceful coexistance.

This islamic attitude to science, mathematics and learning was so foreign in Europe that it was considered heresy and blasphemy.

This got the Catholic Church so UPSET they hunted down all the Muslims/Heritics and converted them by force or killed them.

The Church was so fanatically against free thought and scientific research that they blamed the Renaissance on Islam.

In revenge for undermining the awesome power of the Church (and planting a seed for Europe to emerge out of the Dark Ages) ,the Pope killed or baptised by force all the Muslims (and Jews) in Spain.

Then the Pope and Church along with loyal Kings started the Crusades to make sure Islam would not reach any further into Europe with their "heretical views".

The Islamic view of One God, no original sin, and the belief that there should be NO Religious hierarchy and NO organized church was a total slap in the face of Christiandom.

-----------

“The Renaissance of Europe did not take place in the 15th century. Rather it began when Europe learned from the culture of the Arabs. The cradle of European awakening is not Italy. It is the Muslim Spain.” (Robert Briffault, The Making Of Mankind)

“The Christian World came to wage crusades against Muslims but eventually knelt before them to gain knowledge. They were spellbound to see that Muslims were owners of a culture that was far superior to their own. The Dark Ages of Europe were illuminated by nothing but the beacon of Muslim Civilization.” (F.J.C Hearushaw, The Science of History.)

“The greatest crimes, the greatest “sin” of Mohammed in the eyes of Christian West is that he did not allow himself to be slaughtered, to be “crucified” by his enemies. He only defended himself, his family and his followers; and finally vanquished his enemies. Mohammed’s success is the Christians’ gall of disappointment… He did not believe in any vicarious sacrifices for the sins of others.” (Edward Gibbon, Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire.)



Only the atheists have the intellectual honesty to acknowledge these Islamic accomplishments :

If you read my last questions, I think something's screwed up with me. It's not only these fit's I'm having, but also feeling really sad and believing false statements etc. But my parents don't think it's serious and arn't taking me to a docter. They are taking me to a therapist, but theres no medicine in that deal. I need drugs or something to stop this. How can I help myself without my parents knowing?

I lived in this residence area of the Bay Area in Clifornia and every day from school as we went home we would see small shoes hanging from power lines that went across a street. Do people do that for fun or something?
