This book was released on 2024-06-28 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The technological advances of the past century have been extraordinary, particularly in areas like information technology and artificial intelligence. These leaps can be traced back to the Age of Enlightenment, which emphasized reason and science over tradition. However, this period also gave rise to materialism, leading to the entrenchment of theories like Darwinian evolution in academia, despite mounting evidence to the contrary. This adherence to dogma has led to "scientism"—the overreach of science beyond its capabilities. True science should acknowledge its limits, remain open to evidence, and not suppress alternate perspectives. Science and Christianity are not incompatible; science reveals the complexity and design of God's creation, reflecting the innovation of the Divine Mind. Volume II explores significant trends in Science and Technology as "Burning Bushes," relating them to the Christian faith. It covers compelling topics such as Quantum Mechanics, Digital Transformation, Artificial Intelligence, DNA, and other evidential support challenging traditional Darwinian Evolution, the science of the Human Body, Transhumanism and Humanity 2.0, Decentralization and Web3 (including digital currencies and Bitcoin), and technological doomsday scenarios. Each chapter provides pragmatic, biblical, and actionable recommendations. The book aims to provide a holistic, scientifically sound, and biblically integrated perspective on emerging technologies' promises and challenges. It seeks to correct scientifically inconsistent approaches that sidestep Intelligent Design as well as purpose. By exploring these themes, the book offers a balanced view that acknowledges both the potential and perils of rapid technological advancement, grounded in a factual, meaningful, and scientifically grounded worldview.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 21st Century Burning Bushes series is about the incredible, the unusual, the wonderful, the miraculous as well as the strange, the terrifying, the surprising, the horrific, and the signs that are all around us - all amazing Burning Bushes. We have a choice - as non-Christians, Christians, or even congregations and churches. Will we turn aside and examine what these Burning Bushes mean? What are they saying, and how are they connected? Or will we retire in the comfort of the familiar - in our bubbles? These Burning Bushes have been around for centuries - even millennia. Nevertheless, in the 21st century, their brightness and frequency are increasing. It is critical for us to be aware, prepared, and amazed. More importantly, we need to be operational: turn around and examine the implications and act accordingly. The Creator is speaking through these Burning Bushes. They all point to the nature and character of our Lord Jesus Christ. They are all pre-cursors to a final showdown. Each chapter of the book series (there will be four volumes, Lord willing) uncovers a Burning Bush and delves deep into its ramification and affinity with other Burning Bushes. Also, each chapter provides pragmatic recommendations for action.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Gifford Lectures have challenged our greatest thinkers to relate the worlds of religion, philosophy, and science. Now Ian Barbour has joined ranks with such Gifford lecturers as William James, Carl Jung, and Reinhold Neibuhr. In 1989 Barbour presented his first series of Gifford Lectures, published as Religion in an Age of Science. In 1990 he returned to Scotland to present his second series, dealing with ethical issues arising from technology and exploring the relationship of human and environmental values to science, philosophy, and religion and showing why these values are relevant to technological policy decisions. In examine the conflicting ethics and assumptions that lead to divergent views and technology, Barbour analyzes three social values: justice, participatory freedom, and economic development. He defends such environmental principles as resource sustainability, environmental protection, and respect for all forms of life. He present case studies in agriculture, energy policy, genetic engineering, and the use of computers. Finally, he concludes by focusing on appropriate technologies, individual life-styles, and sources of change: education, political action, response to crisis, and alternative visions of the good life.
