This is a moderated community.
The goal is to encourage people to approach mathematics in a fashion that makes it accessible. In order to do this, we're going to need a few basic rules.
- Try to be on topic.
- Be civil.
- No drama.
Pretty simple, huh? Yeah... I reduced them to the lowest common denominator. If you have any questions, feel free to ask.
Off-topic is tolerated to some extent. Submissions should all be about mathematics, or clearly relate to mathematics. However, once you get into the comments section, it's a much looser standard. Discourse is encouraged, so long as civility is maintained. Good conversations tend to meander around topics and that's perfectly acceptable.
If you do vote, concentrate on promoting content and not downvoting content. Encourage and comment, if you see something that could use improvement. Downvotes don't convey very much information and aren't really helpful. If you must, you must... But try to assume the person making the post was just communicating poorly. Try to assume the best possible interpretation of their post.

You can stumble along in the darkness if you want.
If you're curious - I've read vast amounts. I don't actually have a number because I've read that many. I hold a doctorate in Applied Mathematics, which is pretty trivial to verify.
But, no amount of evidence is likely to convince you and it's impossible to reason someone out of a position they didn't reason themselves into. So, I encourage you to continue thinking exactly like you do. Don't change based on new information. Don't take the time to investigate and learn. Don't actually make an effort to understand the subject - just go with your gut instinct and stick with it, regardless of the evidence.

I'm quite in the open actually.
And this somehow allows you to know whether what you read was written by a muslim or not? How exactly?
Quite the opposite actually. You are what's called an 'intellectual yet idiot'. Petrified of even thinking that what you've come to believe is wrong. You will never even entertain such a idea. Instead you will always go on the defensive.
See, the thing is, I was already on your side once. I believe what you believed, and then, through my own research, changed by beliefs. You believe what you were taught, and dare not challenge it.
Projecting so hard right now.

Well then you should be able to show this research. Please, do feel free to share this research - I'd be quite interested in the sources from which it is drawn and the accuracy of the claims. Feel free to change my views on this, show me evidence that these claims are not true and that your claim is true.
