"surely you can think of other reasons for this lack of evolution other than cultural defiencies"
Easy Stephen: Educational, intellectual,governmental,legal,democratic thought,separation of church and state,rule of law,tolerance,forgiveness,women's rights,
freedoms of speech, secularism, the media...I could go on and on.
The points are that all these were the results of a western civilization casting off the strait-jackets of various religious and dictatorial/facist thinking, something that the Moslem world community has obviously not been able to accomplish.
(In 500 or even 600 years there must be some things that the Moslem world has contributed to civilization? What would they be?)
If in fact, this 'religion's' stated goals are the reversal of all things "western" and secular and all their reasoning and rationales ooze out from their so called holy book, the Quran, does this qualify as a "root cause"?
