"The contributions of Religion to sciences" = a big, fat zero
Religions have hindered progress wherever possible and humans have succeeded in spite of religions and only because they were better than their gods.
That people were religious and believed gods existed did not drive them to make scientific discoveries. Human curiosity and creativity did.
Over 50% of Muslims are illiterate today. Not 500 years ago, but today. Because their doctrine commands to read the Koran, to reflect and ponder what their god has told them - in the Koran. They are told not to worry about things which would make them doubt (5:101) and that men will care for women, who are a degree beneath them. This has resulted in some female population percentages being over 90% when it comes to female illiteracy.
Many Islamogists lie and claim that 1000 years ago Muslims were the greatest scientists, but that's primitive propaganda. That's also why Islam in its present form and conservative interpretation is dying.
