By the way, the word Giberish is derived from the word Algebra. It goes back to the time when Algebra was first introduced into Europe by the Moorish of Spain. That new concept of calculus didn't make any sense to the people at that time, for considering the numeral Zero as a number just like any other number was just incomprehensible

I think you are talking Giberish mate...

It's meant to be from Irish descent.
And I don't recall the Moors landing there or the Irish being well aware of Algebra in the 10th Century.
However I guess you're meaning Jābir ibn Hayyān as he was known as Geber and talked in an esoteric code that only his followers/enlightened ones (read Islamists) could understand.
If indeed the word gibberish does come from Geber then it only proves two things:-
1, He was talking a load of bollocks
and
2, It had nothing directly to do with algebra.

Firstly it's gibberish and secondly what absolute bollocks you're talking.

I object to the word 'civilisation'. People reading may get the wrong impression of the barbarians.

Re: Surely this breaches the Hippocratic oath?
Quote me a case first so that I can comment on. Besides, Is your issue with why doctors are used to carry out court punishments or you are condemning the nature of the law itself? By the way, the Oath taken by doctors on graduation in that part of the world is something along the line “I will do my almost to serve God my religion and humanity and so on …”

I have two issues:
1. Getting a doctor to paralyse a healthy human.
2. The adherence to laws from a book written hundreds of years ago.
I should know better by now having seen this shit for years, but the way religion is twisted out here at times sickens me.
