Scientolatry
The dogma of scientific materialism. The irrational tenets of scientolatry were:- Evolution has no divine purpose, creation is a fluke.
- The meaning of any phenomenon resides solely in that phenomenon.
- Science is the only reasonable way to understand any phenomenon.
- Truth independent of material phenomena does not exist.
- God is a biologically adaptive device of the human mind.
- Religion is superstition and myth that will disappear as science progresses.
- Any scientific work (no matter how robust) that challenges these assumptions is dismissed as sociopolitical.
