You know who is even worse? The savage Ottomans and their Berber lackeys who enslaved, raped, or murdered over a million Europeans in raids between 1500 and 1800. And we didn't even kill em!

but the Golden Age of Islam let a jew live in peace and pursue higher education and participate in academia in the 13th century.
Quote:
Ibn Rushd and Ibn Sina played a major role in saving the works of Aristotle, whose ideas came to dominate the non-religious thought of the Christian and Muslim worlds. Arabic philosophic literature was translated into Latin and Ladino, contributing to the development of modern European philosophy. During this period, non-Muslims were allowed to flourish relative to treatment of religious minorities in the Christian Byzantine Empire. The Jewish philosopher Moses Maimonides, who lived in Andalusia, is an example.
