Presumably, the commenter I replied to was able to read this part, since it comes just before the line they quoted: In the modern world, science, technology and reason are central and vital, and this is widely recognised So I don't see how you can say that anything was buried. Also, to disengage as a reader is one thing. To take the time to then comment on what one hasn't read, misstating the author's point-of-view and encouraging others not to read, on the basis of one's own lazy misunderstanding, is just wilfully spreading ignorance.
