Still, according to Obama, there have been far more Muslim Nobel Laureates. One people build, the other people destroy.

"Anytime you have a discovery that changes the conventional wisdom that's 200 years old, that's something that's really remarkable," said Princeton University physicist Paul J. Steinhardt, who coined the term "quasicrystals" and had been doing theoretical work on them before Shechtman reported finding the real thing.

Is the name Steinhardt Jewish? He theorized quasicrystals before they were ever found.

Textbooks are safe. They tell you what to think, so you don’t have to. Burn him at the stake for everyone else’s sake. Originality is dangerous, you see.
