Description

Moral theologian Paul Scherz uses a theological analysis of risk and reason to suggest ways to enjoy the positive benefits of predictive technologies while constraining their dangers. Instead of dwelling on a future we cannot control, we can use our past experiences and Christian tradition to focus on discerning God's will in the present.
