Are people becoming their own gods?

Is society experiencing the birth of a new kind of human being arising from cultural change and technological revolution? Are there perhaps even theological reasons that human beings are now turning into their own gods?  These are the questions Israeli historian Prof. Dr. Yuval Noah Harari poses in his 2017 book Homo Deus. Freiburg cultural philosopher Prof. Dr. Oliver Müller, Bonn moral theologian Prof. Dr. Jochen Sautermeister and Freiburg fundamental theologian Prof. Dr. Magnus Streit will discuss this bestselling book during the Freiburg religious talks.
