Manage episode 367033276 series 3295459
Mary-Jane Rubenstein is Professor of Religion and Science in Society at Wesleyan University, and is affiliated with the Philosophy Department and the Feminist, Gender, and Sexuality Studies Program. She holds a B.A. from Williams College, an M.Phil. from The University of Cambridge, and a Ph.D. in from Columbia University. Her research unearths the philosophies and histories of religion and science, especially in relation to cosmology, ecology, and space travel.
I spoke to Mary-Jane about her latest book Astrotopia: The Dangerous Religion of the Corporate Space Race
Some of the topics we discussed includes:
- Why should we care about bible stories, in a book about out of space?
- How integral the Christian victory over paganism was in transforming a world full of living things to objects for us to consume and absorb
- Should we be wary that the space race will be any different from how the West's exploration of new frontiers in the past has always been at the expense of a people or group?
- Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos space race ideologies and how they differ from one another.
- Will the space race be beneficial for everyone on earth or just a select few?
- Is there a better way to go about space exploration than the way its been so far?
The Book and Audiobook: Astrotopia: The Dangerous Religion of the Corporate Space Race is out now.
As of now, my podcast is biweekly and prior to an episode I’ll let you know what book/audiobook I’ll be listening to before the next show so we can delve into it together!
