My theory is that what is call as 'science' today has replaced mainstream religion.
So it is indeed a from of religion.
Most human have a "religion" template in them and they fill in that with some prevailing common belief. In the past it used to the religion containing gods, now it's environment, the virus etc.
(Though with the environment/virus as with traditional religion, there are always elements of truth mixed in)
