James K.A. Smith Quotes

The Upshot Is A Hermeneutics Of Suspicion; If Someone Tells You That He Or She Has Converted To Unbelief Because Of Science, Don't Believe Them. Because What's Usually Captured The Person Is Not Scientific Evidence Per Se, But The Form Of Science: "Even Where The Conclusions Of Science Seem To Be Doing The Work Of Conversion, It Is Very Often Not The Detailed Findings So Much As The Form" (p. 362). Indeed, "the Appeal Of Scientific Materialism Is Not So Much The Cogency Of Its Detailed Findings As That Of The Underlying Epistemological Stance, And That For Ethical Reasons. It Is Seen As The Stance Of Maturity, Of Courage, Of Manliness, Over Against Childish Fears And Sentimentality" (p. 365).
