I was born with the gift of laughter and a sense the world is mad.

Quote:“We wanted people to consider if it is possible to be blessed by a machine, or if a human being is needed,” Stephan Krebs of the Protestant church in Hesse and Nassau, which is behind the initiative, told the Guardian.

I imagine the church and theists stating that it is impossible, considering that the robot does not have a soul with which it can use to properly be in contact with god.

At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

What's the difference between the robot and a human priest?

One's incapable of caring and has no heart.
The other is some type of mechanical thing.
No God, No fear.
Know God, Know fear.

Nor is it a son of Adam.  God would be unaware of any intercessory applications to which it might pretend.


Satan, on the other hand . . .
 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
