Until the advent of materialism and 19th c. dogma, Western Civilisation was superior to anything Islam had developed. Islam has not aided in the development of the modern world; in fact civilisation has only been created in spite of Islam. Proof of this resides in the 'modern' world and the unending political-economic and spiritual poverty of Muslim states and regions. Squatting on richer civilisations is not 'progress'. Islam is pagan, totalitarian, and irrational.
A list of scientists in the 16th and 17th centuries
Surely these men were really Moslem ?
by Ferdinand III
From Stark's 'How the West was Won' [and my subtitle, Why Islam is such a failure]; a list of 52 prominent scientists during the 16th and 17th centuries. 50% Catholic, 50 % Protestant, with only one – Edmund Halley – a self-confessed agnostic. But remember these remarkable men sprouted like mushrooms after a rain, all before was 'dark' and they owed nothing to medieval creation, invention or intelligence. Or perhaps pace the Marxist revisionists [those who possess very large brains], these men 'stole' everything from those creative, innovative Arabs......[you know concepts like Jihad, child-bride marriages, female genital mutilation, crucifying Christians, slavery etc]

Show me a similar list of Moslems and Chinese. Or in the case of Islam, maybe take the European name and Moslemify it, which seems to be the only 'proof' we have of Islam creating anything.
