Title
"Almost," "More Than," or "Truly" Human?: Examining Sci-Fi TV through the Lenses of Digital and Theological Anthropologies
Abstract
Metaphors are powerful aspects of modern social imaginaries. In this paper I examine how old metaphors interact with new metaphors in contemporary sci-fi shows through the lens of digital and theological anthropologies. The human computer interactions imagined in these shows reveal Western social concerns with human security and human nature itself.
