Coram Deo versus Homo Deus

"Coram Deo versus Homo Deus" is a scholarly book that addresses the challenges and utopias of modern humanity, particularly in the context of belief in progress and technological developments. The author, Sebastian Kleinschmidt, analyzes the concept of "Homo Deus," which portrays humans as supernatural beings capable of overcoming their human limitations through technology and data optimization. In a world where the "Great Algorithm" is revered as a new deity, the question arises of how a Christian perspective on these developments might look. The book offers a critical examination of the philosophical, theological, and scientific aspects of this topic and seeks answers to the question of how humanity can preserve its identity and faith in an increasingly dehumanized world.
