Humanity 2.0? God, Technology, and the Future of Being Human

COSAC is the leading interdisciplinary conference on Christianity, the sciences, and technology in Australia, since 1997

Join us at ISCAST’s biennial Conference on Science and Christianity (COSAC 2024) as we come together to dive into these questions over three days.

• What does the Bible say about being human?
• What are the implications of being made in God’s image? Of being created “male and female”?
• Are bodies essential to being human?
• Are we free to heal them? Remodel them? Enhance them? Escape them altogether? Should we seek to combat aging? Mortality?
• When does the good use of God-given creativity cross the line and become “playing God”?
• What are the implications for social (in)equality and the abuse of power? And, beyond the church, how can Christians help society wrestle with what it means to be human?

There will be themed parallel presentations by theologians, philosophers, scientists, and practitioners, as well as keynote talks and panel sessions for a lay audience. There will be plenty of opportunities to connect with others interested in the science–faith conversation.

If you’re a student:

• You could have the chance to win a grant for a science–faith project! See our Call for Proposals for more details.
• You can enquire about extra assistance from scholarships and grants, on top of the already discounted student tickets, if required to be able to attend the conference. We don’t want anyone to miss out. If this is applicable to you, contact us.
