Something to shake the very foundation of your lack of faith
RE: Something to shake the very foundation of your lack of faith
Science in Greece was a philosophy a religion a meaning of life

look at Socrates and his definition of the world and universe being made up of four elements i.e earth fire water and air

this was turned into a religion , they created temples out of these beliefs

and other Greek philosophers where searching for the meaning of their existence

also also of the things they developed they couldn't practically use

they didnt have experimental or practical chemistry, and a lot of their science of mathematics was intertwined with chemical nature of elements

but the Arabs where already working on trigonometry and astronomy, they were already working on physics and chemistry, they already had a set of systems to use for all of these things, they had developed tools

Jabbay ibn hayyan developed crystallisation , calcination, filtration, distillation amongst other things into a practical field and was doing it and teaching it to others
