Description
Introduction On August 31, 2009, "Ayatollah" Khamenei, the "Supreme Leader" of Islamic Republic of Iran, in a speech he delivered to a group of university professors expressed his unhappiness with the fact that two-third of university students in Iran were seeking degrees in humanities and liberal arts. Khamenei stated "many of the humanities and liberal arts [subjects] are based on philosophies whose foundations are materialism and disbelief in godly and Islamic teachings. Instructing those sciences lead to the loss of belief in godly and Islamic knowledge. Teaching those disciplines lead to propagation of skepticism and doubt about the religious principles and beliefs." (1)
