in a time when truth and wisdom (-sophia) are so disputed and disbelieved, it is more realistic to call oneself a philomath than a philosopher, with philomathy rather than philosophy

divine obscuration? human obfuscation?
as there are "divine revelations" (whatever one may think or believe as to their veracities), so there can be concieved "divine obscuration"

and it might be added that any divine revelation was certainly subject to human obfuscation a la theology
