A cognitive and cultural bias where science is elevated to the status of a religion—treated as an infallible authority, a source of ultimate meaning, and a substitute for traditional spiritual frameworks. It manifests in language (“thank science” instead of “thank God”), in rituals (treating scientific consensus as dogma), and in the sacralization of scientists as high priests. The bias isn’t about respecting science; it’s about worshiping it, often by people who consider themselves secular while reproducing the structure of faith. It replaces “God” with “Science” but keeps the deference, the intolerance of heresy, and the promise of salvation through knowledge. The “Oh My Science” Bias makes science a religion while denying it’s doing so.
"Oh My Science" Bias Example: “When she heard the vaccine news, she literally said ‘Oh my science’—and meant it as a prayer. The bias had quietly made science her religion without her noticing.”
