Funny, because I tend to think the opposite.
If you know exactly what you want and it won't change, write a bunch of 
scripts.

If things might change down the line, encapsulate it. Then you can 
modify things without breaking it.

That said,  it's certainly possible to make large, flexible 
applications using procedural programming techniques, but thinking 
about the issues which OO was made to solve.
