I guess it's also no conincidence that Western society fell behind Arab society when Christianity became the controlling religion in the west. Only when the west became less religious was it able to surpass the still religious Arabs again.

Wait, are you saying Arab society flourished when it adopted Islam? It is interesting that there seems to be a trend where a prophet finds a major religion, society happens to advance, society starts to decay as the religion becomes less suited to the age, and then another prophet appears to continue the progress.

I don't know if Islam had anything to do with it. Just that Europe was backwards for a while (the dark ages) while the Arab world was a lot better off technologically and culturally during that period.

I think you're right. All of the gretest scientists in the Arab and Persian world made their discoveries after Islam was introduced. I guess because the religion encourages education and learning.
