I think there are an awful lot of people out there who don't even know there was once a Golden Age of Islam.
Agreed and that is too bad, I'm happy to learn from any ancient culture; I really pine for it.
At the same time though, I did not feel it was fair not to discuss a cultural trend in the negative such as "taharrush jamai" if it happens to extend from part of the same culture; a trend that will have to cease in the Western world at least and should absolutely not be permitted to continue.
