What if cops carried freeze rays instead of guns? Could it change society? Could technology really solve police brutality?

Christians for millennia have debated whether force—and the technology employed in it—is necessary to stop evil, and whether Christians should resist lethal weapons in general. Some people envision a future without guns, where law enforcement uses non-lethal weapons. Star Trek has long pictured a reality where force involves stun guns but not bullets.

Can non-lethal technology create a more peaceful future? Could it lead to a more equitable society?

After all these centuries, Adam and Chris finally have the answer. . . . well, okay, that didn’t happen. Instead, we’re diving into this question from our unique angle, asking how is the gun shaping our relationships and our society, even when it isn’t fired?
