What's a Christian to do? Ethical Responses to Contemporary Issues in Science and Technology
As science and technology grow more robust and complicated, it is increasingly difficult to wade through the "what ifs" and "what thens."
This five-part course will examine the place of specific technologies in society, their role in enhancing and restricting human beings, attempts to own and control technology, and social and environmental risks and opportunities associated with each.
Join us for this by-donation opportunity to discuss and discern "What's a Christian to do?" in a world that never stops changing.
