  That's all fine. But the article isn't about the current state of any part of the Arabic world. It's a guess at the historical process by which science became less significant in the Arab world, something that happened centuries before you were born. You may well have grown up with the implications of that, but that's not what TFA was about.

    Ok I see what you mean and maybe I should’ve paid a bit more attention to the specifics, but I still stand by my original comment.

      Stop deleting your comments. It vandalizes the thread.

      > Ok I see what you mean and maybe I should’ve paid a bit more attention to the specifics, but I still stand by my original comment. Interesting definition of "stand by" you have there, since you replaced everything else with "-".

        Admittedly it’s a topic I shouldn’t have really touched on and me deleting the comment doesn’t mean I don’t stand by it I just regret expressing the opinion publicly. I’m sure the original comments are already archived somewhere since this made front page, anyone should be able to find them if they really want to.
