Sort of. If it steps anywhere near religion, it would be closer to theology - the idea that a complete mathematical description of reality is not merely possible but the foundation of reality echoes Plato's theory of forms, as well as Descartes idea of an ens realissimum, Spinoza's monism and Kant's concept of an omnitudo realitatis. But all of these are very stripped down in comparison to actual religion. I don't think any of these guys thought God had a beard, let alone physical form or personality. So anything like turtles is off the table too. Plus, the faithful themselves were very skeptical of them, and lots of people were charged with impiety for expounding this kind of stuff. Specially so in the case of Spinoza and Kant. |
