I officially retire from this thread unless things are taken fairly, lest I don't want anyone to treat me a particular way "By a huge margin of mistake" and "for not reading my posts edequately".
For reasons other than my inability to reply or my lack of answers, I am off this thread.
Cheer Indians.
Thats what you wanted and someone else did it for you :)
In esteem, but NOT as a Holy book as compared to the
other 4.

You are giving self contradictory statements
[/quote]
No. You dont understand my statements and instead go on ranting about
the "authentic Hindu websites", when there are dozens of them floating
around the net.

This is the language of a person claimed to have
produced 2 "scholars" .....
Waoooo, there have been plenty of occasions where you have shown us how
decent language you use being and claim to have produced 2 scholars
[/quote]
As though you use very civilized language. Can you just scroll up to
your post to remind yourself of this ?

where is the contribution of Hinduism to the "World"
[/quote]
Didnt you read my post ? Zero, decimal system, (stolen by Arabians) ,
Astronomical concepts, Sanskrit grammar for modern-day computing (ever
heard of The Panini-Backus Form in Syntax of computing ?)....all these
were contributions to the world.
As for other ideas, they were discovered independently by other
mathematicians, but yet why shouldnt they be counted as India's
contributions.

where did it get acknowledged in the world??? Where
where????

Here Lahori !! Here !!! In the words of the Australian Indiaologist
A.L. Basham The Wonder That was India
"... the world owes most to India in the realm of mathematics, which
was developed in the Gupta period to a stage more advanced than that
reached by any other nation of antiquity. The success of Indian
mathematics was mainly due to the fact that Indians had a clear
conception of the abstract number as distinct from the numerical
quantity of objects or spatial extension."

This is all like
an essay, not more than anything. I can write 1000 like this
[/quote]
Dont talk nonsense just for the sake of saying something.
The website I quoted was the School of Mathematics and Statistics,
University of St. Andrews, Scotland. Now go yap with them.

So does that mean you deny the source of rvikz and indirectly
what he posted
or that you consider wikkepadia an unreliable source? Still the website
are so meak. Nobody will acknowledge them to accept your
claim...
[/quote]
Meek websites ? Like I said go and argue with St. Andrews.
[quote]
And the other one is some sort of discussion website :D with no
where abouts whom it belong to and from where it originate...... Do you
think everybody here is that stupid to believe all that?
[/quote]
Lahori Logicum, did you ever bother to find out ?
[quote]
Betey,
My uneducated innocent dude, My question is who acknowledged these
scientific facts. Why they did not enlighten anyone in the time of 300
BC etc? Why didn't Hindoos reach the hight of scientific advances
then....
[/quote]
Who said Hindus didnt reach scientific heights then ?
No wonder the Muslim age in India was the dark-era in Indian
mathematics history.

The one article you poste, which is in pdf, let me remind you it
is not taken from any renouned journal. It is a simple essay someone
wrote in USA...... not in India. This essay is not endorsed by any
scientific society. It is not critically reviewed......

Only an incompetent fool like you would say that. Read the
beginning of the text (if you are literate and not taking someone's
help to read).
