Bring That Hammer Down

This is a recording of a talk given at Samford University, Birmingham, Alabama, on 18th October 20204. I was invited to talk on the theme of ‘Resisting the Machine and Renewing the Church.’ In response, I talked about J. R. R. Tolkien, Arthur C. Clarke, D. H. Lawrence, robot priests, the Garden of Eden, Steve Jobs, Sir Wilfred Thesiger, the abolition of nature, and how to take a hammer to your smartphone.
