What such people fail to realize is that this is a kind of reductionism that concedes to their intellectual opponents a major point, namely, that certain kinds of facts and certain applications of reason are the only ways to arrive at truth. All that remains of faith is a checklist of rules, rituals and formulae, its words and symbols mere signs, no ambiguity, no mystery to ponder, everything one-dimensional.
