David Lochhead's Speech October 2, 1984

On October 2, 1984 David Morgan Lochhead was invited to give a speech on the occasion of his promotion to the position of Professor of Systematic Theology. The introduction, which is not the complete introduction, was by Dr. Arthur Van Seters, who was then Principal of the Vancouver School of Theology.

What is unique about this speech is that it is the first time David Lochhead gave his thoughts about the direction which computers were taking and envisioned how they might affect the Church and the World.

This speech was printed for the first time in 1988, four years later, as Chapter 1 in this book:

1988 - Theology in a Digital World (Toronto: United Church Publishing House, 1988) - a collection of six essays: Theology in a Digital World; Theology about a Machine; Does God Love Computers? The New Electronic Church; The Tower of Babel Revisited; Toward a Theology of Information
