Theological concepts. Is it just reductionism dressed in religious drag?

It seems that as I look at the titles in theological concepts it's just philosophy and reductionism specifically. It all seems like a string theory (reality starts with non dimensional strings) and manifests into physical. The discussions start with that assumption but are specific lost in the trees debates how those magic strings work and manifest the forest. I could be wrong it could be a type of multiverse discussion where tolkiens LOTR is actually a literal scientific story telepathically transmitted from another universe. Reductionism is wierd but definitely " normal".

If anything LOTR is religion dressed in drag. You can see a lot of bible themes in it, dressed in fantasy.

If the concept is dressed in Biblical text, it is not philosophy. It is all strung together, but has one central theme---Jesus loves me, this I know, for the Bible tells me so.

That's reductionism perfectly expressed which then leads to a building with someone calling it an ark with Jesus riding dinasaurs!!!! Just like the multiverse and string theory all blended together!!!
