God's otherness (Fr. Ron Rolheiser)

   When religion is rejected in the name of science, invariably the religion that is being rejected does not safeguard God’s otherness and has, however unintentionally, reduced God to something that can be grasped through human categories. Stripped of genuine divinity and mystery, such a God will inevitably not stand the test of hard human questioning. 

--Fr. Ron Rolheiser, O.M.I.
