What Prominent Achievements Were Made By Atheists During The Medieval Age? by KingEbukasBlog(m): 12:11pm On Aug 20, 2016
Do you know that the founders of modern science where the Christians and Muslims ? Do you know that the prominent achievements in science , philosophy and technology in the medieval age - 5th - 15th century - were made by religious people ?

Atheists have made so many false claims and I want them to vindicate themselves by telling us the major achievements of atheists during that era.

Since when did seeking for help become a bad thing? At least it is better than saying "God did it" leaving no room for any argument or research" undecided

The medieval era was very religious on its own right. Even if there were irreligious scientists or men who have achieved great accomplishments, they would have had to keep it hidden to avoid being killed by the church.

The point of your thread is simple, and I agree, more people who believe believed in a god achieved a lot and still do. That doesn't mean their god is real.

Alexander the Great, was a follower of the Greek polytheistic religion, also called, Hellenism. They worshipped a hierarchy of deities, with Zeus being the king of the gods. By the age of thirty he had created one of the largest empires of the ancient world, stretching from Greece to northwestern India. Does that mean that Zeus is real?

Egypt is the birth of civilization and at the time they worshiped Horus, Osiris etc. Does that mean their gods are real?

Genghis Khan, the Mongolian emperor, was the founder and Great Khan (Emperor) of the Mongol Empire, which became the largest contiguous empire in history after his death. Genghis Khan was a tengrist. So? How does this imply that god is real or that any god is responsible for his success?

There are many great Muslim scholars and many great scientists as well. The Islamic Golden Age, spanning the 8th to the 15th Centuries, saw many great advances in science, as Islamic scholars gathered knowledge from across the known world and added their own findings. Would you then agree that Allah is the greatest and that Mohammed is Allah's prophet?

Nigu please undecided

Lololol. Somebody's already missing the point. The argument is not the validity of theism but the contribution of both theism and atheism in the medieval era? I'm not taking sides just observing. I might have this and a Man City for lunch.

KingEbukasBlog the topic should be changed to "What Prominent Achievements Were Made By Atheism During The Medieval Age?"

Reason:

People can have individual achievements, as long as it wasn't motivated by atheism, whoever they list here would not matter.

What an atheist has achieved is somehow different from what atheism has achieved, what a Christian has achieved is somehow different from what Christianity has achieved...etc

I dunno if you catch my drift. smiley

Does this nonsense look familiar : " Christianity hindered development " "Religion stops us from thinking" "Christians within the medieval age stopped knowledge from increasing "

That's why I want to know what atheism or atheists achieved during that time .

Science was actually promoted by people who were ready to rebel against religion.

Copernicus and Kepler actually hid most of what they found out about the universe for fear of the church. Prior to this, the general belief was that the earth was the center of the universe.

Galileo will later put a nail on this when he invented the first space telescope. He died under house arrest for confirming the ideas of Copernicus about the nature of the universe which is a total opposite of what religion has taught over the ages.

Newton came under great attacks and was accused of occultism because of his experiments with elements. The church nearly ostracized him from society.

Though Faraday and Maxwell were devout Christians they too came under attack for daring to explain the phenomenon of thunder and lightning and duplicating them here on earth.

The Indian and Arabic mathematicians that the world owe most of the system of measurement actually built their knowledge from Egyptian and Babylonian philosophers who existed thousands of years before the Abrahamic religions.

Religion, especially Christianity, actually wanted to decimate science and free thinking if not for the bravery of Galileo Galilei who refused to back down about the truth of the real nature of our universe.
