I would however say that the unreasonable effectiveness of mathematics is God’s copyright notice on the Cosmos.

That's a nice platitude, but the point is that both mathematics and methodological naturalism are both just abstract constructs that are used as investigative tools. They aren't theology.

Philosophical Materialism is a belief system.

Methodolical Materialism is an investigative methodology.

Methodological Materialism becoming a belief would be Philosophical Methodological Materialism, and is rubbish.
