People who dismiss science in favor of religion sometimes confuse the challenge of rigorously understanding the world with a deliberate intellectual exclusion that leads them to mistrust scientists and, to their detriment, what they discover.

Deutsche Übersetzung

Menschen, die die Wissenschaft zugunsten der Religion ablehnen, verwechseln manchmal die Herausforderung des rigorosen Verständnisses der Welt mit einer bewussten intellektuellen Ausgrenzung, die dazu führt, dass sie den Wissenschaftlern misstrauen und zu ihrem Nachteil das entdecken, was sie entdecken.

Kuhn was the intellectual of whom many scientists said he's 'telling it as is it is' insofar as talking about a process of 'tinkering' in terms of theory and experiment followed by radical changes. But often, what Kuhn had in mind were some very spectacular incidents in the history of the sciences that changed our way of looking at the world.
