Tech Agnostic with Greg Epstein

  • Location
    Interfaith Center - 58 Winthrop St

Description

Today's technology has overtaken religion as the chief influence on twenty-first century life and community. In his new book, Tech Agnostic: How Technology Became the World's Most Powerful Religion, and Why It Desperately Needs a Reformation, New York Times Bestselling Author of Good Without God and Harvard/MIT's influential humanist chaplain Greg Epstein explores what it means to be a critical thinker with respect to this new faith.

Encouraging readers to reassert their common humanity beyond the seductive sheen of "tech," this book argues for tech agnosticism—not worship—as a way of life. Without suggesting we return to a mythical pre-tech past, Epstein shows why we must maintain a freethinking critical perspective toward innovation until it proves itself worthy of our faith or not.
