destruction, which occurred after the Arab conquest of Egypt:  "Then in
642 a Moslem attack succeeded where the Christians had failed.  When
asked what should be done with the Library, the victorious Caliph Omar
commanded that those books that were contrary to the Koran should be
destroyed.  Furthermore, those books that conformed to the Koran were
superfluous and they too must be destroyed. 

That sounds perfectly logical to me, and very similar to the way that 
Christian Fundamentalists are treating evolutionary theory.
