‘believing’ in science is not a belief in science as process it is a belief in science as an abstract object genetically determined by what is present within hegemonic discourse. this is why we use the term scientism to describe this behavior. the academic territory we enter his the estuary of religious and secular thought: hermeneutics. the strength of jewish religious thought is in its weak faith in the object of religion and corresponding strong faith in the process of religion. this results in a dynamic living faith that challenges adherents rather than being a crumbling silent edifice demanding maintenance from adherents in anxious being. it’s no accident that this weak-object strong-process orientation is present in secular jewish thinkers (marx, freud, kuhn, derrida, etc). so, per above, there’s a real issue in christian process theology from the strong object commitment and it results in the development of postmodern theology cribbing wholecloth from derrida who uses weak-object constructions of morality and justice. john d caputo, an american christian theologian, develops a reconception of christian religious process as weak theology as very derivative corrective. maybe this is just because my experience with extremely online religious thought involves a lot more people in active and critical study but caputo is not an obscure figure at all so i find it very curious that these very online christians are so caught up still in strong-object orientated religious thought.
