What does it mean to be human in an age of science, technology, and
faith? The ability to ask such a question suggests at least a
partial answer, in that however we describe ourselves we bear a
major role in determining what we will become. In this book, Philip
Hefner reminds us that this inescapable condition is the challenge
and opportunity of Homo sapiens as the created co-creator. In four
original chapters and an epilogue, Hefner frames the created
co-creator as a memoirist with an ambiguous legacy, explores some
of the roots of this ambiguity, emphasizes the importance of
answering this ambiguity with symbols that can interpret it in
wholesome ways, proposes a partial theological framework for
co-creating such symbols, and applies this framework to the
challenge of using technology like artificial intelligence and
robotics to create other co-creators in our own image. Editors
Jason P. Roberts and Mladen Turk have compiled eight responses to
Hefner's work to honor his scholarly career and answer his call to
help co-create a more wholesome future in an age of science,
technology, and faith.
