I do agree that education is the key to excellence. But we should also consider that Jews are powerful because they contribute to the societies they chose to live in and make themselves indispensable. where as Muslims tend to destroy the very societies that sustains them by trying to imposing their medieval mindset .

The entire basis of this article is twisted logic. Think about the following:

Why are Parsians so powerful? Because they inhabit a major cultural center of the West.

Why do religious castes and communities that believe in mass literacy and mutual help seem to do well? Why are Pakistan`s Ismailis so much better off than its Deobandis?

Nice Article,
but i had read all these details before on another site, same thing i found here, i.e., baseless comparisons,
why would`nt you like to put some reasons behinds,
Whether you beleive that Noble Prize is the only criteria to judge any religion strength or any nation`s capabilities /capacities?
Have you ever notice Noble prize is run by whom ?
They prefer who and WHY ?
Whether the two groups you are comparing are provided by the same sources etc.
There are lot of things to look ......................................
Next time come up with some other statistics BUT WITH SOME LOGICS BEHIND.
Beter Luck Next Time
