He (Averroes) wasn't secular. He was an Islamic religious judge.......Just because you use words like 'eternal' & 'forever' or 'religious' doesn't mean you have slightest clue what you're talking about. The world is not only stranger than we imagine, it is stranger than we can imagine, the secular becomes religious, the religious as we see today,profane.

Again, Averroes had a profound influence on the West/Europe and yes he was secular. That you have a reading problem & know little of history bothers me little, we can keep on correcting you. Merry Xmas
