Just finished a book titled, “God’s Battalion’s: The Case for the the Crusades: by Rodney Stark, that makes this and other points demonstrating that all of the ‘credit” Muslims take for civilization REALLY came from the dhimmi (sp?) who were forced at sword point to convert or those converted by treaty. All the Muslims did was take credit given to them by liberal scholars of the so-called “Enlightenment” and their modern-day apostles. Fascinating read. Highly recommended for those wishing to know the truth of the Crusades and the so-called “Dark Ages” (another lie).
