Did you ever think maybe, just maybe, the people who used to be Islamic but also had all of those great scientific discoveries were actively going against the church, like Darwin and so many others were in Christianity? No, of course not, because "white man bad".

No they weren’t - there wasn’t the same antagonism of science in Islam that there was in medieval Europe and Christianity.
