Science is inherently atheistic

[blue grey brain]

I recommend Wikipedia/history of science, or Wikipedia/scientific revolution or Wikipedia/atheism.

All will show that modern science quite literally emerged when theistic components were dropped from science.

I think the issue here is that many people think atheism merely stops at rejecting deities. Instead, data shows atheism is stitched into modern science, and directly influenced how modern science came to be. 

• Religion had value in days of antiquity, as naive ways to describe the cosmos, and it enabled the development of modern science. However, religion continued in a direction contrary to modern science, sticking to old models such as cosmological argument or astrological principles, while modern science discarded those. Notice that atrology/religion is now regarded as pseudoscience.
  

No, theistic component was drop because of modern science. Modern science didn’t emerge because theistic componetnwas dropped.

Consider the sequence below:

Wikipedia/atheism:

• "The first individuals to identify themselves using the word atheist lived in the 18th century during the Age of Enlightenment."
  

Wikipedia/Age of enlightenment:

• "The Enlightenment was marked by an emphasis on the scientific method and reductionism, along with increased questioning of religious orthodoxy."
  
• "Broadly speaking, Enlightenment science greatly valued empiricism and rational thought and was embedded with the Enlightenment ideal of advancement and progress. The study of science, under the heading of natural philosophy, was divided into physics and a conglomerate grouping of chemistry and natural history, which included anatomy, biology, geology, mineralogy and zoology."
  

Wikipedia/natural philosophy:

• "Philosophical, and specifically non-religious thought about the natural world, goes back to ancient Greece."
  
• "Thales, Anaximander, and Anaximenes, attempted to explain natural phenomena without recourse to creation myths involving the Greek gods."
