A fusion of scientism (the belief that science is the only legitimate path to knowledge) with puritanical purity culture—resulting in a worldview where scientific orthodoxy becomes the sole measure of virtue, and any departure from it is not just wrong but wicked. Scientistic puritanism demands that all knowledge claims be validated through approved scientific methods, treats alternative ways of knowing as not just mistaken but sinful, and engages in relentless crusades against the unbelievers. It's the new atheist who treats [religious belief] as cognitive pathology; the skeptic who thinks believers deserve contempt rather than engagement; the rationalist who sees [irrationality] as the root of all evil. Scientistic puritanism turns [methodological naturalism] into a religion, with scientists as its priests and skeptics as its inquisitors.
