Yet just another creation White people stole and erased the credits, al Ma'arri, an atheist philosopher of the Abassid Caliphate created the cult of reason:

Champion of Reason: Al-Ma'arri famously declared "no prophet but the mind," arguing that human intellect is the only reliable guide to truth and morality.

Critic of Organized Religion: He considered religion a "fable invented by the ancients" and believed that sacred texts were merely fabrications.

Skepticism and Anti-Dogma: He remarked that "the inhabitants of the earth are of two sorts: those with brains, but no religion, and those with religion, but no brains".

Rationalist Perspective: While criticized as a heretic in his time, he maintained an ascetic, ethical, and intellectual life.

Ethical Philosophy: Beyond his rejection of traditional faith, he was a staunch advocate for social justice, pacifism, and became a strict vegan on ethical grounds.

Now imagine if at the same century an european had the same philosophy as him and preached in public like he did, it wouldn't take for him to be tortured to death by the church in gruesome ways such as the iron maiden or the stake.

Brown people merely need to look at our past to regain our lost glory, there is nothing to be learned from our oppressors

But brown people cannot abandon their religion, so its pointless.
Also, he sounds very interesting, thanks for introducing him to me.

>An Arab philosopher was a smart atheist of his time
This does not prove Muslims started the Enlightenment. The Enlightenment refers to an event in European history

>>18408023
Muslims did not
An Atheist Arab man did

This!!!
There are enlightened individuals around the world both in ancient times that left their mark and even today there are enlightened individuals

Ancient china had some too
The art of war
The tao
Are two ancient books from china that have wisdom in them that is not the religious kludge the bible and koran turned out to be

>invented the enlightnement and scientific method
Ok. What specific scientific discoveries did they make? What mathematical problems did they solve? Were they actually the first or some Greek?

>created the cult of reason
>reliable guide to truth and morality
Ergo none of the above and nothing original.

>staunch advocate for social justice, pacifism, and became a strict vegan
Ergo he was a retard.

We didn't steal it as in, we took it and now you don't have it. We copied it, and you abandoned it voluntarily because you are retarded, inbred muslims.
