So the following:

1021 – Ibn al-Haytham's Book of Optics. First use of controlled experiments and reproducibility of its results.
1020s – Avicenna's The Canon of Medicine
1054 – Various early astronomers observe supernova (modern designation SN 1054), later correlated to the Crab Nebula.
Shen Kuo: Discovers the concepts of true north and magnetic declination. In addition, he develops the first theory of Geomorphology.

... were based on myths?

no, the myths started in about 1905..... after the creation scientists had already discovered everything scientific....

Why don't you support a law that would make all abortions illegal?

We have already discussed you and I that freedom of choice verses slavery. Wouldn't doing so take away your freedom of choice? Why would God want unwilling people who don't really love Him?

If you think it is ok for God to do so, then you agree it is ok to pass a law forbidding all abortions and the right to choose???? There is no difference.....

You insistence on Dave is just avoidance of the truth you already understand as is clear by your responses in your Kidney challenge. You seemed to understand perfectly there that every person has the right to choose........ Why can't you understand that here?????

Wow, what in the world is your problem?

I asked Dave a question, I would like to hear Dave's answer. And then all of a sudden you go flying off the handle having the sort of temper tantrum I would expect from a little child. Why are you so afraid of hearing Dave's answer?

If I wanted your opinion, I would have asked for it.
I saved you the trouble. :)

Since you only post every now and then, I wasn't going to wait for an invitation.

Then why doesn't God just snap his fingers and make all the non-christians into Christians?
Because He honors our own freedom of choice.

I asked you a question...... Seems to me you are the one that has the temper tantrum problem....

I'm not afraid of hearing his answer at all.... I'm just waiting to hear yours????

So you just jump into a conversation that you weren't part of and answer a question for someone else?

That's rather rude, don't you think?

So you are saying that God can't make us all Christians without robbing us of our freedom of choice?

I admit that it would be logically impossible for him to do so, but you've already told me that God is not bound by logic. So doing things that are logically impossible shouldn't be a problem for God.

So why doesn't he just snap his fingers and make us all Christian in a way that does NOT violate our freedom of choice? Remember, you can't say that it's logically impossible, because you've already said that's not an issue for God.

Wow, it seems you have trouble understanding the flow of a discussion. I asked Dave a question. I don't care if other people have answered that question or not, I specifically wanted to hear DAVE'S views on it.

And I asked Dave why God doesn't just snap his fingers and make everyone a Christian. I can't see what relevance abortion has on the topic. Your post honestly came across as an incoherent rant.

Yes ... I answered it for someone else ... you.

And, of course, all the readers.

Helpful, actually.

When you're here as long as I have been, you'll come to realize that when a person asks a question, it's FIRST COME FIRST SERVE on getting an answer.

Even if you ask a specific person a specific question.

Then people would rant & rave they don't have any freedom of choice.

Are you capable of knowing what another person's views are? Did you speak with Dave to understand his position? No?

So when I ask for the opinion of a specific person, why do you waste my time giving me what I didn't ask for?

As I said, stick around, you'll learn how conversing on forums works.
