: Is Humanity worshipping science as a religious
: object?
For sure. As I always have been stating - Science has replaced the ancient Gods. Most 'Eggheads in their Coats of White' (sorry folks, I belonged to this 'Priest Cast' as well once...) only serve their God, which the do call Whatever-Science-Logy. As in every Re-Ligi-on (Ligare=Bind Them All) Crucifications, Witchhunts and Dogmas are commonplace in every drawer of Science...
See some of my related, older posts on that:
SCIENCE – PERSONAL EXPERIENCE – ANALYSIS...

...where I am saying almost the same than you in different words. by introducing the HOLISTIC approach this term goes well along with the NOETIC...
Or...
OUR SYSTEM IS AN INTERCONNECTED 'REALM'...

: “You will find the science of ascension in the dancing of
: the Sufi’s, the meditation of the Yogi, the chanting of
: the monastics. This science is a lost science, but it can
: be regained.” - W. Strieber: The Key
Hear, hear... ;-) How true for me. By the Whirling Dance you create a 'personal' kind of Vortex - C-onnecting (On Nectar?) to the Great Source of All (Did Muhammed's Guide Archangle Michael mean that by the NOETIC W-ORD ALLAH? - Or as I like to call it: "All-That-Is-and-Is-Not"
)
The Islamic 'mess-age' is therefore MOST RELEVANT, because it´s the 'freshest' revelation - in comparison to the 'other' Religions (Oh, everything is "in there" too...) - where most of the C-ore (the 'golden' C-enter, the 'meat') has been 'whitewashed' and been adapted by the Institutions of those Religions. Church IS NOT Religion, as it never was... Religion is individual and cann't be 'institutionalizied' for by making that it will loose its power. It becomes more important for the STRUCTURE to 'survive' than promoting the Message for it was made for. This we call Orthodoxy and you can find this development in EVERY STRUCTURE that has been made for 'serving an original IDEA.
The Sufi-Tradition can maximal be compared to the GNOSTIC, where the 'meat' of the Message of The Christ was 'preserved' at its best...
: In recent years various teachers have hinted that science and
: religion must be united if mankind is to have any future.
: In his talks Jiddu Krishnamurti often pointed out that the
: division of Science and Religion not only obscured man’s
: origins; but hindered human development. The Wingmaker’s
: website also links man’s future to the scientific
: discovery of the soul and the discovery of a portal they
: call: The Grand Portal.
You forgot the ARTS. In Wingmakers THIS is a VERY IMPORTANT approach, as The Artist can C-OMBINE both at its best. Uniting Brain and Heart AGAIN!
It was the GREEK tradition, where our C-ulture (Vulture anyone?) got implanted!! with the SPLIT of RELIGIO and SSSS-Cience. B.t.W. - Do you know that in HEbrew Lang-Guache the term GREEK means JAWAN? It has a strong RELATION with the word "JONAH", the guy with the Fish. Why?
JONAH is the female form!!! of JAWAN. Both are constructed similarly: 10-6-50-5 and 10-6-50. (see as well in our language: The Ionians...)
Jawan ist the 4th son of Japhet - and his blessing is done TOGETHER with Shem!! - so they are a UNITY!! The w-ord "JAPHET"(10-80-400) includes the term of SPREADING as well as the Term "BEAUTY"(10-80-5). So Japhet 'spreads' the Principe of the Father. The Greeks idea was always to be found in terms of spreading, colonializing and subduing...
So - we do find here the ALREADY IMPLANTED INTENTION of GOING INTO THE EXILE (Nr. 22, if you add all 4 sons of JAWAN and him=2200, 66+346+1210+470+108) - together with the PLAN of the RETURN. Watch as well THAT THERE ARE 22 HEBR. LETTERS!!! - and Jakob & Joseph have been in EXILE for 22!! (sic) years.
So - the leaving of MAN from his SOURCE is called EXILE (X-Y-LE). It was implanted in the GREEK (no wonder that the Hebrews called them the 'reversed people') with the PURPOSE of the possibility of RETURNING TO THE SOURCE again. - And here we are, and here we go again!
: In other words Religion has humans idolising planetary and
: Geomantic Earth Sciences, the science of Astronomy, Sacred
: Geometry and the Science of Nature. Is it possible that an
: Extraterrestrial Race interjected themselves between humans
: and the source, demanding to be worshipped and using the
: Science of Cosmos as a focus for that worship?
That's exactly what happened, and this may have been called THE FALLING as well, which was a repetition of the FIRST FALLING of the spirit into FLESH long, long ago...
Religion simply mishmashed it TOGETHER as ONE 'EVENT' - perhaps by not knowing better, or simply by ?intention?.
