Funny you should mention "Diversion". That is exactly what each is. I look at them as being almost identical in presentation. Both rely on a set of "Fixed" beliefs. And both are dependent on adherents accepting those "Beliefs". The priest wears robes and tunics and the scientist escapes dissent among ranks by wearing the lab coat. Each new theorem postulated requires a quantum suspension of belief until proven. (Or unproven)
