Quote by Terry Eagleton

Evil may be 'unscientific' but so is a song or a smile.


Evil may be 'unscientific' but so is a song or a smile.

Summary

This quote suggests that evil, like a song or a smile, cannot be easily explained or measured by scientific methods. While science strives to understand the natural and observable world, some aspects of human experience, such as emotions and moral judgments, defy scientific analysis. Evil, being a subjective concept rooted in human behavior and moral interpretation, may not conform to scientific explanations. Similarly, the intangible qualities of a song or a smile, which evoke emotions and connections, often transcend scientific understanding, highlighting the limits of science in fully capturing the breadth of human experience.
