:. Film & Theology Presents: I, Robot

Rachael and I are sponsoring a new KC Film & Theology Event this Friday, March 24 at 6:30 p.m. We’ll be meeting at Cornerstone Baptist Church in Lee’s Summit (501 N. Missouri – just off Douglas).

We’ll be watching and discussing I, Robot (Directed by Alex Proyas, rated PG-13) and discussing the question: Have we been made for a purpose? After a brief introduction, we’ll view the movie and have a short discussion about the issues it raises.

Childcare will be provided and the event will last about two hours.

In the year 2035, robots are an everyday household item, and everyone trusts them, except one, slightly paranoid detective (Will Smith) investigating what he alone believes is a crime perpetrated by a robot. The case leads him to discover a far more frightening threat to the human race. Inspired by the classic short story collection by Isaac Asimov.

How far can mankind come technologically in a 30 year period in history?
