113. One of the authors had an interesting experience in this regard. A colleague reported having started a small garden to show his eight-year-old children where vegetables come from, and the children laughed at the idea that vegetables come from the earth; they replied, “No, Dad, they come from the store!”

115. By keeping in mind Ellul’s theological works as one reads his sociological writings, one will see how each side of his oeuvre provides a counterpoint to the other. As one contemplates the arguments in Technological Society, one should keep in mind Ellul’s contentions in Hope in Time of Abandonment. An analysis of technique may leave one somewhat despondent, but Ellul argues that there is always hope, even in a realm determined by technique. Ultimate hope, however, is not found in scientific or technological progress, but only in an existential encounter with the Wholly Other.
