SJ: But his point is that there is a dominant "world view of science" (ie. materialistic-naturalism), which does in fact regard all "religion" (including Christianity) as based on "ignorance" or "superstition."

What do you mean dominant ? And what evidence do you have to support this ? That some religions abuse science for their faith is beyond doubt. Science should not be silence on those issues. But before describing science as SJ has done above, one should at least make some effort to support this.

SJ: The deeper reason that Peck makes why science is not just neutral towards religion but actually hostile to it, is because "science itself..is a religion."

Funny... A common mistake by those who try to introduce their religion as science.
