We are not a thing to God and we are so much more than a mere creation of God, not like a pot or a coffee cup but a child of the "loins" of the creator - the connection is so deep and so incredibly intimate. When conceived in this way the nature of God's love for each of us becomes comprehensible to humans.<br /><br />Being human in the 21st century means we have the opportunity to claim our birthright. <br /><br />JohnJohnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06245470576919732592noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22980286.post-77764689679966084092010-03-12T18:36:36.154-05:002010-03-12T18:36:36.154-05:00I asked the question as I was listening to Barry T...I asked the question as I was listening to Barry Taylor speak this morning at the Theology after Google conference. He was sharing with us the ways in which the human/technological divide is already blurring, from prosthetics that really work to other technologies being embedded (or soon will be). So, I'm just tossing out the question, to see if folks might offer thoughts on the blurring of lines!Robert Cornwallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04581876323110725024noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22980286.post-7214535939559461262010-03-12T18:35:54.641-05:002010-03-12T18:35:54.641-05:00Well, one example, for a few hundred bucks we'...Well, one example, for a few hundred bucks we'll soon be able to have our personal blueprints determined and drawn up (Personal Genome). I think all this twittering and such is a fad though. Personal privacy will push back eventually.
