What We Will Cover
Beam up for a three-week exploration into the Jewish themes woven through your favorite science fiction and fantasy stories. From time travel to telepathy, clones to capes, this class takes on the big questions:
• Can an alien be Jewish?
• What does Jewish tradition say about cloning and artificial life?
• Can someone like Darth Vader truly repent?
• Is it ever ethical for a superhero to kill the villain?
