LOL. I love Bushisms. Now that he is out of office i dont know what i am going to do for entertainment.LOL i like the Bush comment as your signature. Remember when during the financial collapse of General Motors, the press asked him "What do you think of the current situation of General Motors?" He said "I think his doing a fine job in Iraq". LOL
My fav one was when he was in Germany and he was at this podium standing with the German chancellor and though he was supposed to be giving this stern address, he said like 5 times:
"i'm really looking forward to that roast pig we're having tonight"
By the end of it the Chancellor was just staring at him like he was a moron which i suppose Bush is anyway.
You're right about the achievments of Islamic civilisation. Much of the devolopements in medicine and science became the founding blocks of the celebrated renaissance that the western world prides itself on.
PLUS the Quran itself details many scientific facts like the devolopment of the embryo and gathering of clouds that were only detailed recently by scienctists.
