Description
Religion, Science and Technology: An Eastern Orthodox Perspective explores the complex relationships between faith, science, and technology. This thought-provoking book delves into key issues such as the conflict between science and religion, the impact of technology on religious practice, and the ethics of innovation.
Metropolitan Kallistos, a renowned expert in Eastern Orthodox Studies, shares his insights on topics including transhumanism, human enhancement, and medical prosthesis. He addresses questions on the limits of innovation, the role of judgement and freedom in society, and the significance of theological concepts such as "image and likeness".
Through a sober critique of technological advancements, Metropolitan Kallistos provides readers with a unique perspective on the intersection of faith and technology. This book offers a valuable opportunity for reflection on the trajectory of technological progress and its implications for society.
