Islamics want to create only one civilisation of their own.By any means.Applying the Darwanian theory of 'survival of the fittest',here 'survival of the majority' by creating their majorities everywhere by any means.Name terrorists--and they are muslims.Name terrorist nations--and they are muslims.Name injustice towards women--and they are muslims--what else do we have to prove?If Islam and Koran says peace,why dont the followers follow their true religion?Why are so many extremists groups surviving in those islamic nations?and how?
Nora:we talking abt the present,looking back frm what we were.Where was Islam earlier,and what it is now,better or worse?

Rome had faith before that Mayan decline probable had little to do with that Europe went into the darkish a even as because Rome fell to the nomads and it lost any major authority, skill, or stepped forward civilization it had. there develop into little substitute in non-West Roman elements of Europe. They were already very a lot uncivilized. The Arab international develop into also an psychological and medical middle for hundreds of years after Islam. yet certain, faith has been undesirable for civilization, as a results of barriers on how human you would possibly want to be, it being the opium of the human beings, non secular persecution (inquisition, Turkish Armenian Christian Genocide, and so on.)

Rome was one of the greatest cultures of all, and Christianity destroyed it. Look at all the scientists, artists, and writers destroyed and how Christianity threw western civilization into the Dark Ages. Killing millions of people for 'witchcraft' or 'heresy' or for possessing something wanted by the powerful. It's terrible! A travesty!
And it continues today, with actions like the burning and looting of antiquities in Baghdad during the US invasion there. W's 'crusade' against what he considers 'infidels' since he's a fundamentalist Christian.
All three Abrahamic faiths, Judaism, Christianity and Islam, have been extremely destructive to the people of this planet, and cruel to its ecology too. I wish they'd all go away.

Careful before casting stones.
The current benchmark to determine which cultures are current and advancing and which are stuck hundreds of years in the past is:
Understanding and general acceptance of the scientific theory of evolution.
A similar question from the past, for example, would have involved the understanding and general acceptance of the Copernican Universe (the earth revolves around the sun).
The Catholic Church resisted this (and I am not always sure that they have figured this out still) for an embarrassingly long time.
The truth was less important than their religious belief and digma.
Now, here we are again. Same basic issue: unquestionable empirical scientific evidence vs. religious dogma.
If you do not know about evolution – then you are living in the 1400’s.

Hmm, look at the greeks?
Look at the US?
Islam did damn well for a LOOONG Time.
Everything has it's time.
Look at Hinduism.. it had it's golden period too.
Then, things change.
People forget to change, and get left behind.
The christian world moved ahead because people became LESS religious, not more.
In another thousand years things will be different again.
Maybe I should start a religion, it might just last.

Yes...true. Islam does seem to stop a civilization from keeping up with the rest of the world in terms of innovation, etc. Weaving rugs is the only thing women are allowed to do in Islamic countries...Persian rugs is the only thing they're famous for...not that they invented them...

Man and his overzealous quest for power is the only destroyer of civilization.

islam is supposed to be about peace. but the islamic extremists misinterpret the koran and believe that they can attack us because we support Israel (sigh)
and of course now they hate us even more that we are in Iraq and Afghanistan.
