People get inspiration from religion too, but that does not make them patent holders on anything.People get inspiration from many things in life. You're the one that seems to have a problem with a source that is, unlike religion, actually making no claims. Science fiction is just that, fiction. It says so right in the name. Why you seem to have a problem with shit being made up to tell a story is completely beyond me. It's fiction. That means made up and I think every reasonable person alive understands that.
