Apology accepted. I do not disagree with you on where Christianity is today.
But at the time of the beginning of the modern era (about 1450), Europe was the overwhelming last redoubt of Christendom under siege by Islam. Sure, there were Christians in Ethiopia. There were some in India, I think. There were quite a few under the despotic control of Islam. There were Christian kingdoms in Russian Asia.
The tools the Modern era is built on, the compass, reliable ocean crossing sailing vessels, paper, printing, gunpowder, mathematics, astronomy, metallurgy.
All of those, or precursors, were available to Islam, China, India, elsewhere before they became well known and used in Christendom. They may even have been independently discovered or re-discovered in Europe. Europe independently developed their own sailing ships, in my opinion. But gunpowder, for example, clearly was known in China, long before Europe. Paper was developed in China. China had printing blocks, but never developed the printing press. Algebra was developed in India, I recall. The Chinese had ocean crossing vessels a bit before Europeans, but destroyed them. Most of those technologies moved from the East, through Islamic controlled lands, to Europe.
But I think we agree on that.
Off hand, I cannot think of any significant technology developed by Islam.
Perhaps you can give me an example or two.
I can’t think of any Muslim invention or invention created by Muslims, even nominal ones.
I am prejudiced against Islam, but imho a civilization declines the more muslim it gets
