RT @nick_routledge: @BrianZahnd Indeed, I'd aver Schleiermacher's 'cultured despisers' of religion describes 'religious' as much as 'non-religious' dismissal of Reality as fully, supernaturally here. Incarnation, a participatory threshold defined by passing over from God-belief into God-experience itself, then?

Excerpt from tweet thread: Aṭṭār Christians who somehow manage to reconcile their faith with the sort of complacent, sneering scientism one would normally expect of a strident atheist or secular humanist are very puzzling. I had in mind smug dismissals of notions of enchantment (or, in a Barfieldian register, original participation). There's something genuinely bizarre about being at once a Christian and someone who thinks a participatory ontology is woo woo.
