Take a look at some of the"extreme right wing christian research" it's just as laughable.
Equally... the person in that interview, Dr. Abd Al-Baset wouldn't be classified as the most levelheaded of people, his comments seem to be common to those of religious right-wing islamic groups.

Yes, but "extreme right wing christian research" doesn't form the basis of science in America, or any western democracy. It's just a bunch of fringe loonies.
Whereas extreme loony Islamic science is mainstream in countries like Egypt and Syria, and compulsory in countries like Iran.
Again, there is a massive difference between Western democracies and Islamic theocracies or despotisms.

I'm not convinced of this yetalthough i've heard it claimed several times on the news... have you got any solid proof that "extreme loony Islamic science" is indeed mainstream?
