Machines, cars included, aren't biological, don't struggle for survival, don't die, don't reproduce.

These are the driving forces behind evolution. There is no goal, other than reproductive success and survival.

You'd believe if you just opened your heart" is a terrible argument for religion. It's basically saying, "If you bias yourself enough, you can convince yourself that this is true." If religion were true, people wouldn't need faith to believe it -- it would be supported by good evidence.
