Shamanic and doctrinal
Robin Dunbar’s How Religion Evolved and Why It Endures rehabilitates the long-standing anthropo- logical view that religion evolved in two phases. The first, shamanic phase of religion consisted mainly of trance-dancing practices in hunter-gatherer societies, followed by a later stage in which beliefs about gods became more elaborate. Dunbar dates the transition to this later phase of “doctrinal” reli- gion as coming in with the agrarian settleme…
Interpréter l’humain – l’ Imago Dei à l’heure du numérique
Les programmes d’intelligence artificielle s’avèrent de plus en plus capables d’assumer des tâches considérées jusqu’alors comme spécifiquement humaines, telles la génération du langage et de l’art, ou la reconnaissance d’image, et sont en marche vers un niveau d’intelligence équivalant le nôtre ou le dépassant même. D’un point de vue théologique, il est à craindre que de tels développements puissent invalider l’intuition de la spécificité humain…
Is There 'Spiritual Intelligence'? An Evaluation of Strong and Weak Proposals
The debate about whether, and in what sense, there is 'spiritual intelligence' remains unresolved. We suggest it will be helpful to make a distinction between strong and weak versions of the claim. The strong version proposes that there is a separate and distinct spiritual intelligence that meets the criteria set out by Howard Gardner in his 'multiple intelligences' framework. This involves evidence from neuroscience, evolutionary psychology, cog…
Cognitive Vulnerability, Artificial Intelligence, and the Image of God in Humans
Recent progress in artificial intelligence (AI) opens up the possibility that one day machines could do anything that a human being can do, raising thus serious questions regarding human distinctiveness. For theological anthropology, the prospect of human-level AI brings a fresh opportunity to clarify the definition of the image of God. Comparing human and artificial intelligence leads to replacing the Aristotelian-like interpretation of the imag…
Human-Level, but Non-Humanlike
The doctrine of the imago Dei is central for theological anthropology, but its meaning is still being disputed.With many equally appealing competing interpretations, it does not seem likely that a solution can emerge on theological grounds alone.This paper argues that a surprising lifeline can be found in dialogue with the nascent field of artificial intelligence (AI).Looking at where AI currently struggles in its attempt to replicate human cogni…
