Like, CS Lewis isn’t doing this thing; whether Wolfe is is a complex question. Kirby almost certainly did, but the figure missing here is Zelazny, whose Lord of Light isn’t Abrahamic but is all about a reproduction of a religious cosmology by techno science...

Except Zelazny presents it as the work of fallible humans (so, ultimately, does Wolfe... except Wolfe’s humans are perhaps perfectible, one of the strangest conceptual threads in the Solar Cycle). Anyways, theological variants of science fantasy, an interesting category.

Yeah, I need to read more Zelazny. But he's definitely in this camp.
