Quoting "Very generally ..." is not enough!
A philosophical standpoint has a

I don't do philosophy, in that sense. I study physics in the context
of the computationalist frame.
We the humans inherit ways of thinking, memeplexes that can
not be isolated in atomic concepts, neither reduced to fancy

These set of related ideas include attitudes

tradition, he is a consumer of a vulgarized version of the view, which
is a second rate version of the same ideas reduced to the present.
I derive conclusion from an hypothesis. That's all.
That historical holistic way of working of the human mind is why
modern thinkers that follow a the tradition, the one of modernity,

Here we agree. In theology, the seriousness peak has standed about
1500 years ago with neoplatonism, and we have regress since. It might
