At its height, ‘El Andalus’ was probably the most advanced region in Europe - I’m talking about the era of Maimonides etc. You sound like you’re repeating the notorious Black Legend.

By the time of the Reconquista, the Islamic world (including in Andalusia) had rejected the possibility of "enlightenment" and rejected many of the principles that made the Renaissance possible. May I suggest Aristotle's Children by Richard E. Rubenstein as an excellent explanation of how the Islamic world was slipping back into the intellectual barbarism that still plagues it today.

Sounds like you never read an actual history book.

But continue to suck up to the murderous mohammedans.

Maybe they will castrate you last.
