Duša u kiberprostoru

Douglas Groothuis

A philosophical analysis of the impact of the Internet and digital technology on ethics and human nature from a Christian perspective. Groothuis, a professor of philosophy, explores how cyberspace is changing the way people communicate, see truth, and exp

The book warns of the dangers of replacing real, physical relationships with virtual interactions, highlighting the loss of authenticity and depth in communication. Groothuis criticizes the illusion of "freedom from the body" that the Internet promotes, arguing that it dehumanizes the experience. It explores topics such as privacy, technology addiction, and information manipulation, warning of the erosion of moral values in the digital age. It focuses in particular on how the Internet can threaten Christian values, such as community and the search for truth, and how it can encourage superficiality in faith.

Despite the criticisms, Groothuis does not reject technology entirely, but calls for its responsible use, while preserving the human soul and ethical principles. The book combines philosophical analysis, theological insights, and practical examples, offering both warning and guidance for Christians in the digital world.

Although written in the early days of the Internet, the book remains relevant for its insightful observations about the impact of technology on society, especially in the context of today's digital ubiquity.
