The Future of Christian Religion in the Genetic Age

Abstract

As we enter the genetic age, where science and technology are providing more and more avenues to play God with our own futures, we need to develop social, ethical, moral and spiritual traditions which are up to the challenge of dealing with the unknown future in a way which preserves human and planetary viability and doesn't subject us to a futile endgame or an apocalyptic armageddon through our own lack of sensitivity and foresight. The Western tradition of gentile Christianity can only play a part in this future through a revolution of outlook at the most fundamental level.
