If you were Ayatollah of the world you wouldn't care about science.
The history of Islam is one of repression of science, among other

Man, you need to do some reading. Start with a fellow named Kitab
al-Manazir, who between 1011 and 1021 wrote the seven-volume Book Of Optics
that helped to establish the modern scientific method. That's not
surprising when you consider that while Europe was still mucking around in
the Dark Ages, science and art were flourishing in much of the Islamic
world. While that sadly changed over the centuries, it is foolish to
pretend that at one time the Islamic world wasn't ahead of the west in
scientific terms. And for that matter Christianity doesn't have such a
great record when it comes to suppressing science. Come to think of it, a
significant number of today's Christians seem to have some problems when it
comes to science, don't they.
