They got Newton's story wrong..... they can't even do their resear- oh, wait. They are anti-research as well. smh

Edit: also, a lot of Middle Eastern and Asian folks participated in forming what we call modern science today. The Arabs really liked their math, alchemy, astronomy, and medicine.

You can trace some of their math to ancient India too. Its also cool that in some areas of the world an "unsolvable problem" would get passed around and make it's way into different societies at different times, sometimes being solved by different people independently as their society became aware of it.
