A key foundational fallacy of modern "dogmatic scientism" (for lack of a better phrase) is the fallacy fallacy - just because something doesn't have a scientific or otherwise formally-theoretic explanation, doesn't mean it's false. This is why empiricism was and remains so key in pushing technological progress, contributing to the Enlightenment and the efficacy of the scientific method. As opposed to "dogmatic scientism" where scientifically-oriented religious zealots denounce techniques for merely the reason that we don't properly understand how they work, in the false belief that they are promoting science or being scientific. (A variant of this is where they denounce something for merely the reason that it seems to contradict another scientific theory, but in fact that theory only applies in a different context with different assumptions, and there is no actual contradiction.) "The Science Delusion" is a very good pro-scientific book that covers various other examples of these topics.
