I think there is a difference between arriving at a  theory by empirical
or other means which is later on observed to resemble some religious doctrine
and trying to present a religious belief as scientific truth without
credible evidence.In other words ,a mere similarity to some religion does
not mean the theory is unscientific.To fob off religion under the cloak of
science is something else...
