Econ isn't a religion:
Define: religion
a strong belief in a supernatural power or powers that control human destiny; "he lost his faith but not his morality"
an institution to express belief in a divine power; "he was raised in the Baptist religion"; "a member of his own faith contradicted him"

Economics is a tool that is concerned with the flow of resources through cultures. That *includes* the limitations of technology and resources.

Your appeal to some undefined "laws of nature" is nothing but rhetorical sleight of hand and has no functional meaning in the context used. There is no "trap" except the one you are trying to lay.

EROEI is not foreign to economics, in fact, it is a concept that is fundamentally derived FROM economics.
