I need your help #bookstodon. One of the classes I’m taking at the graduate level this semester is Religion & Science Fiction. I read more fantasy, and would like to do my research paper on something that’s not obvious (like ST/BS5/Matrix/etc.) & I’d love to use more modern sf rather than the golden age classics.

Anyone have any interesting ideas for my research paper on regarding the intersection of religion and science fiction?

      I looked it up, and Wikipedia said 1938-1946. That was obviously wrong though, so I decided 1950 through 1980, beginning with Ray Bradbury and including most of the careers of e.g. Larry Niven, Roger Zelazny, Harlan Ellison, etc.

      The Golden Age of Sci-Fi is 11-14 years old. :D
