Description
Technology — the deliberate use of things to accomplish a task or to attain a goal — comes naturally to human creatures. Since technology always says something about us as creatures, theology always has something to say about technology. This is why theology can’t escape technology — and shouldn’t try. But since technology comes naturally, important considerations often can pass unnoticed. As we begin this symposium, we’ll take time to notice some of them.
