Rationale

Why create [lab]oratory? There’s many books, speakers, sites and other media all about the relationship of Christianity and all kinds things. John Polkinghorne writes on theology and physics. I can’t name all of the books about the theology of music or visual art. Hollywood Jesus does well with theological topics in film. There are Christian business management styles and cookbooks full of monks’ recipes. Just about every arena has been well-connected to theology.

Except computers.

Perhaps the closest people we have doing this would include Marshal McLuhan (The Medium and the Light) and Donald Knuth (3:16 Bible Texts Illuminated, Things a Computer Scientist Rarely Talks About). Generally the literature is pretty thin. The [lab]oratory is my contribution to this discussion.
