That’s a fair description. Even earlier Traditionalists were not yet compartmentalized, and so couldn’t do Science. Compartmentalization helped them. Then “Moderns” decompartmentalized again, with the result that some of them moved towards either atheism or a completely lawful (non-interfering) concept of God, and could do science; while others moved towards fundamentalism, and ended up rejecting the lawfulness of nature and therefore science.

Er, yeah, “originally” was the wrong word—look at what happened to Galileo.
