It's The Thinking Atheist forum. We share quite a few of the same members.

I wouldn't agree that we are less relaxed though. I personally think we are more so, we only have three rules.

Are they:

A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm
A robot must obey the orders given to it by human beings, except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Laws.

I follow TTA on Facebook but never had the urge to explore past that.

Have you seen any of the youtube vids? They can be a good watch if you haven't.

Hmmm, movie trivia!

Yes they are. Now we just need to get Will Smith to stop fucking shooting us!

For shame! It was a book long before they made the movie.. Tongue
When I was young, there was a god with infinite power protecting me. Is there anyone else who felt that way? And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human. Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura

I was 12 when that film came out. Aside from the Harry Potters how often do twelve year olds read the book first?

Besides, where's my "well done Tim" for getting an 8 year old movie that there was no reason I would know? Big Grin

You're 20. You get no "well dones" if you still haven't read any of the Asimov robot books. "movie quote"... yeesh!

Um, I did with a lot of books/movies.. But then again I started reading when I was three, so I got a head start. And my dad read both LotR and another great book by Isaac Asimov, the Foundation trilogy, as a bedtime story for me an my sister, so I got immersed in the good stuff at a young age Big Grin

I care naught for the movie, but the book is a classic Wink
