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?

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

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.
