Rasi, the Radical Freethinker

In another work, criticism of religion and prophecy took the shape of a debate between al rawandi and his friend and mento. But despite these thinly veiled attempts to dutch criticism, romandi became a favorite target of the mediaeval equivalent of the tuidder mob. And he was viciously attacked by both religious scholars and rationalist philosophersanother controversial figure was rasi, who died in nine 25. He was a prolific persian physician and philosopher whose comprehensive work on medicine was translated into latin as late as 12 79. For rasi, reason was the ultimate authority, which should govern and not be governed,. Should control and not be controlled, should lead and not be led.
