Publisher's Synopsis
What if your algorithm has a soul?
In an age where machines decide who gets hired, who receives justice, and who is left behind, Echoes of Eden, Shadows of Babel offers a radical theological vision for artificial intelligence and the future of humanity. Brendon Naicker charts a bold course through the digital wilderness, exposing how AI systems mirror systemic sin and exploring how the Church might respond with prophetic imagination and redemptive hope.
Drawing from the deep wells of Scripture, Christian theology, and cultural critique, Naicker reimagines sin as cosmic brokenness encoded in algorithms and data. He confronts the false gospel of transhumanism with the cruciform wisdom of Christ, and reclaims code as liturgy, repentance as justice, and technology as a site of Spirit-led renewal.
This is not a book of technical jargon or shallow ethics. It is a theological manifesto for a new age-one that refuses to surrender to silicon idols, and instead seeks a kenotic future where machines serve mercy, not mammon.
If the Church is to remain salt and light in a world of synthetic powers, this book may be its prophetic roadmap.
