Does technology bring us closer to the natural world or make it harder to experience it? Does it help or hinder our relationships with other people and with God? This course examines how technology shapes our identities and our relationships with nature, other people, and the transcendent. We’ll look at historical examples, such as the impact of electric lights, and current technologies, like virtual reality and prosthetic enhancements of the body. The course readings will include a range of voices from Christian theology, from ancient to modern times, that offer insight on sharing a meaningful human life with others and discerning the presence of the divine in work, leisure, silence, and the natural world.
