I said:

>>800 years ago, the Arabic world was the most modern in the world.

To which you responded:

>ROTFLMAO. 800 years ago it was the most modern in the world??? Well praise Allah. Damn.

The argument wasn't about whether Islam was modern or not, it was about this statement of yours:

>>>The problem is that modernization is contrary to Islam

But at one point the Islamic community was the DRIVER of modernization, so it's not correct to say modernization is contrary to Islam.
