Thank The Arabs For Aristotle And Zero

[Palumboism]

When Moorish Toledo fell in 1085, the libraries were left intact.  Scholars translated the Arabic to Spanish and Latin.  Many of these texts were themselves translations from Greek including our knowledge of Aristotle. Even the concept of the number zero and Algebra came from these texts.

Fascinating.

But the shitskins still stink, fuck sheep, pray to a horrific sky wizard and endlessly praise a homicidal warlord pedophile “prophet”, chuck folks off buildings and behead them, ruin every society they invade, cause endless suffering and chaos punishing non-believers ...

Fuck these “zeros”.

[FREAKgeek]

A few other cultures had the concept of zero, like the Mayans and Babylonians.

[visualizeperfection]

It only makes sense; Aristotle likely fucked kids as well so they took a fancy to his work.

Thread title should be changed to "Thank the Arabs for translating the records of Aristotle and concept of zero".

Do you thank the Wright Brothers for powered flight?  Would you like to fly cross country on their Wright Flyer? 
All that knowledge for centuries, but the Muslim world couldn't even design a bicycle.

In any given year Spanish publishers translate 100,000 foreign books into Spanish.  In all of the 20th century, Saudi Arabia translated 100,000 books into Arabic.  Talk about building a wall!

Plus their nations are, generally, absolute shitholes, and they get on their knees five times each day and hoist their stinking asses as offering to their reprehensible sky wizard’s astral dong.

Over the next few centuries, the concept of zero caught on in China and the Middle East. According to Nils-Bertil Wallin of YaleGlobal, by 773, zero reached Baghdad where it became part of the Arabic number system, which is based upon the Indian system.

Zero found its way to Europe through the Moorish conquest of Spain

Yes, the Arabic number system got the number zero from the Indian system, but Europeans learned it from the Arabic number system.  Europeans also adopted writing Arabic numerals, which were simpler than Roman numerals.

Yes, I do thank the Wright brothers for inventing powered flight.

I also thank the Arabs for inventing the wheel and writing, which turned out to be pretty useful.

Inbreeding. You forgot inbreeding. They have a habit of marrying cousins or even closer relatives.

[SuperTed]

Nothing particarly wrong with the people, Islam holds them back though.
The Christian ones are fine. Even the Muslim ones would be less problematic had Salafism not become so influential.

[Ted SuperSet]

Arabs/persians very are smart but extreme islam and temper/pride stand in there way. They wil not rule or dominate because og this.

People seem to forget how much knowledge was destroyed and forbidden because of mohammedans, they even banned mathematics in certain times and caliphates.

They hate free thinking, women, non-mohammedans, pigs a.k.a. bacon, dogs, dancing, democracy, lie and manipulate to spread their ideology, torture, enslaved 200 mill people in their enlightened history through the power of sword.

There is nothing the West owes or benefits from their history and ideology of madness, it is a vile and disgusting disease of spirit and mind.

[Griffith]

There was a period when they were in some ways more advanced than western and northern Europe. but they were never more advanced than the Eastern Roman Empire ('Byzantine Empire').

[mac33]

Advanced in trade? Yes, they decimated Europes economy for centuries but in science and philosophy? People still buy the "dark ages" crap they were served in schools…

The ancient greek texts which were lost in Greece had been translated to Arabic and held in libraries in Baghdad and Alexandria. The Alexandrian texts were lost to a fire but not before being copied to moorish spain, from where they entered Europe.

Most technical words beginning with Al are Arabic such as Algorythm, Algebra and many others.

The number system we use today was Arabic but then the Arabs later adopted another script

But the Ottoman Empire failed to embrace education and technology in the way the west did after the Renaissance.

It's true. Prior to the Renaissance the middle East was more advanced. They peaked with the drive of Vienna and control of shipping in most of the Mediterranean

[Pray_4_War]

It must be sad to have to go back thousands of years to find something your people did that is even remotely valuable to modern society.

[mac33]

Regarding money, Ottoman empire was very wealthy, but in terms of science, philosophy and culture forget it.
