Hi Philip,
You seem to use “pagan” as a pejorative adjective. I use it usually in a
meliorative way, for any religion or theology which does not mix state and
religion. The neoplatonists are easily persecuted by those who
institutionalised religion after having separate theology from science. Pagan
meant “neoplatonist” at some period, and they were considered as heretic by the
christians after the closure of Plato Academy. Thanks to S’t-Augustine, the
christian have not killed Plato completely, and both the muslims and the
christian theologians have keep a part of neoplatonism ("scientific theology”)
alive, although soon persecuted by the literalist and the institutionalised
religion.
I think that we will live the Middle-Âge when theology will come back to the
faculty of science (even to mathematics if we want accelerate this). The
obscurantism comes from the fact that we still tolerate the (total) lack of
rigour in the fundamental science and in the human sciences. The Renaissance
was half “Renaissance” as the most fundamental science (theology, metaphysics,
or philosophy) has not yet be given back to the academies.
