Really because the burning of the library was in 391 AD The founding of islam did not happen until much later. The Founder of islam was not born until 570 AD and founded the religion around 609 AD.


A few years back the history channel did a special on the Library of Alexandria. In the documentary they stated that muslim scholars rescued many scrolls before the library was burned. I emailed them and asked how that could be since islam was not founded until centuries later.

It's actually quite fun to look through the "scientific miracles" - advanced knowledge that only God knew at the time and shared with the 'hamster as proof of divinity - and start pointing out that, yep, the Greeks had written about that a thousand years earlier... and that one... and that one too... aaaaaand that one...

By the time the muslims showed up on scene the library of Alexandria did not exist. hundreds of years later is when that claim surfaced. But that would be tad amount to the claiming they built the pyramids or the hanging gardens of babylon. Also the stories that library was burnet by muslims was spread by the catholic church during the middle ages since earlier legend had accuse early christians Which I do not believe the Christians did it either but with that said that is what was stated. By the time the muslims entered the scene the Library did not exist and that is a fact. Their might of been areas of the town that had scrolls that were enact but hardly the library of Alexandria.

Who can believe it? Anyone who has tricked themselves into believing an ancient book over the actual facts of the universe.
Its not just an Islamic problem, though fundamentalist Muslims seem to be the most gullible people when it comes to things like this.
I always recall a former Jordanian co-worker who believed:
1) Neil Armstrong converted to Islam after going to the moon and seeing it was split in half, confirming Islamic tradition.



2) A stone mosque surviving a tsunami and the village of wooden huts surrounding it being destroyed was a miracle.


3) Fetuses form in the womb in the exact order that the Koran says, even though the order is actually incorrect.

Let me try out this argument that people use all the time against me:



"You non-muslims spend an awful lot of time talking about how you don't believe the truth of Islam, you must hate the true god Allah and his prophet Mohammad (peace be upon him) so much."





Yeah...no...its still a vapid argument.  Oh well, I tried it.

I think a lot of philosophical texts were lost. Probably some information on how they built stuff. I doubt though that information like the recipe for greek fire was easily accesible. Stuff like that was kept under lock and key or passed via word of mouth and most likely not in a large library.

Define what you mean by "technically advanced information"?



Ancient secrets for building spaceships and nuclear reactors? No.



Works that set out an understanding of maths and science that were far more advanced than many contemporary civilisations? Quite possible. Hardly groundbreaking, of course, because we already know they were quite advanced mathematically. The contents of the library would have helped us to understand in more detail how far ahead they were and how they had arrived at that stage.



A good example of this "advanced knowledge" is the antikythera mechanism (putting to one side the issue with date differences between the mechanism and the library). Why are we still studying how it worked and the mathematics behind it? We don't need that knowledge because we already understand the mathematics involved in astronomy and can easily make a device to do the same job with far greater accuracy. We are studying it because we want to know how much the Greeks understood about the mathematics.



I think the loss from Alexandria wasn't necessarily the knowledge but the history - part of the Library's mandate was to collect copies of all known written works. Those materials could have been invaluable to tracing the progression of social, philosophical and scientific development through that period of history. While many works had copies distributed to other centers of learning, how many more were stored that we will never know about?

That Catholics had a lot wrong, but I don't see them blowing themselves up or flying planes into buildings.  Worst thing they do now is molest kids. Which they should be beheaded for, publicly.


That doesn't make Catholics better, but they are faaaaaar more reasonable and advanced than the Islamic
