[quote]Algebra? Invented by Iranian Muslims hundreds of years ago. And then there's Einstein. There's proof.[/quote]...?

[quote]The word algebra comes from the Arabic language (الجبر al-jabr "restoration") and much of its methods from Arabic/Islamic mathematics. [/quote] [quote]Abū ʿAbdallāh Muḥammad ibn Mūsā al-Khwārizmi عَبْدَالله مُحَمَّد بِن مُوسَى اَلْخْوَارِزْمِي‎ was a Persian[1][2] mathematician, astronomer and geographer during the Abbasid Empire, a scholar in the House of Wisdom in Baghdad.[/quote] [quote]Al-Khwārizmī's contributions to mathematics, geography, astronomy, and cartography established the basis for innovation in algebra and trigonometry. His systematic approach to solving linear and quadratic equations led to algebra, a word derived from the title of his 830 book on the subject, "The Compendious Book on Calculation by Completion and Balancing" (al-Kitab al-mukhtasar fi hisab al-jabr wa'l-muqabalaالكتاب المختصر في حساب الجبر والمقابلة).[/quote]

I still don't see the connection. Sure, the people who developed various mathematical and scientific concepts were religious, but I assume the title of the thread is referring to the concept of religion itself, not the fact that some people who helped develop science were also religious.

The OP is asking if religion and science are compatible. I'm providing proof that they are compatible. What's not to understand?
