Scientism is the promotion of science as the best or only objective means by which society should determine normative and
Science is based on observation and experiment to separate objective fact from subjective opinion and feelings. Objective fact I that which can be demonstrated by anybody, and the fact does not change based on what or how you believe.
Its efficay is clearly demonstrated by the results. Combative peer criticism winnowing out ideas that do nor work.
Over the last 300 years science has gone through multiple rvisions.
Religion produces no tangible results, only subjective feelings and claims. Jesus talks to me. My prayer was answered. The saying philosophy bakes no bread applies to relgion.
It is clear how science derives a truth, such as aerodynaics used to design jets. It works. No faith or philoshy affects how the plane flies.
Religion has no interdependent reviewed process for claims. I can prove aerodynaics works, there is no experiment that proves religious faith. If so it would be scince….
For the theist, how do you derive truth, simply believing the bible as true? Hearing god and Jesus? A feeling that you are right?
We watch Christian politicians who ignore measurable climate chnage and invoke god for guidance.
Does a theist want to argue that reilgion is a way to derive facts about physical reality? That is the real question here.

Lets try and compare science and religion.epistemological values. While the term was originally defined to mean "methods and attitudes typical of or attributed to the natural scientist", some religious scholars (and subsequently many others) adopted it as a pejorative with the meaning "an exaggerated trust in the efficacy of the methods of natural science applied to all areas of investigation (as in philosophy, the social sciences, and the humanities)".[1]
The term scientism is often used critically, implying an unwarranted application of science in situations considered not amenable to application of the scientific method or similar scientific standards.
