Inventions - makes the article a joke

The section on inventions with tuban bombs, butt bombs, etc. makes this page look like a 12 year olds fantasy. Could someone fix it and at least put something not idiotic in this section? So maybe Islam invented nothing which is fine since a religion is not alive and can't do things. It is basically impossible that Muslims invented nothing since most human beings are creative and have a good intellect. So, I would recommend either adding a list of Muslim inventions or deleting this section. Thanks Iridium (talk) 14:31, 5 August 2014 (PDT)

These are all relevant inventions for example:
The yellow badge that was to be eventually used by the Nazis against the Jews, was invented by a Muslim caliph in Baghdad in the 9th century as a variant of the zunnār belt. This then spread to the western world in medieval times.[3]
They are all very relevant considering the teachings of Islam and its history. For example in this case the Yellow badge is linked to this article which is also a local article and it studies this topic in detail. And here's our article for Zunar which mentions "It was part of the clothing that non-Muslims under Dhimmitude were required to wear in order to differentiate themselves from Muslims."
As for adding a list of Muslim inventions this is a website that focuses on criticism of Islam. --Axius (talk | contribs) 18:44, 5 August 2014 (PDT)
