Nowadays, I try my best to not respond or engage with your delusional, ranting and unpleasant threads - especially since you have never answered my questions or even responded to any of my points properly (in 'transmit' mode, too busy copying and pasting stuff to debate)
So I am not going to engage with you in debate.
However, where do you get your facts from? Facts are facts and will remain binary and constant despite people trying to twist them to suit a preconceived agenda.
The Chinese did invent gunpowder, but were using it for military purposes - i.e. Killing people - long before Marco Polo went to the court of the Mongols. There is written evidence it was used as far back as 1000AD in battles. The first chemical description of gunpowder in China appeared in the 11th century, when instructions were given as to how to make fire arrows.
The Muslim world were using gunpowder in war by 1240 - ie killing people. The Mamluks documented its preparation and military use in some detail, and there is cast iron evidence for this.
Marco Polo went to China in the 1260's.
You are factually incorrect. What you said is untrue. It is not an alternative fact. Just a falsehood.
