Heidegger's idea of our being “thrown” into the world as a religious substitute

Although the phenomenological school of philosophy which began with Husserl and extended to  the most influential twentieth-century phenomenologist, Heidegger, who had a contemptuous attitude toward science, which, for him, was merely an aspect of technological civilization (which he regarded as intrinsically evil). In Heidegger’s writing, the experiences of “being” and of being “thrown” into the world and of finding a destiny that is one’s “ownmost,” which are Heidegger’s versions of or substitutes for religious experience.
