I have coined the word saganism to indicate a broad family of philosophies of science that are antithetical to the Catholic vision of reality. I use the term very loosely; the specific meaning of my use must be determined by the context of the remark I am making.
The general features of a saganist philosophy of science are:
- materialism
- empiricism
- scientism
- atheism
- naturalism
Materialism
Empiricism
Scientism
Advocates of scientism believe that the methods of science should be used to answer all questions about the existence of God, the difference between good and evil, and the meaning of life.
Atheism
