If you could build a truly indepent and extremely intelligent robot. That is far more intelligent than any human and that isn't prone to the same factors that cause bias in humans. It would never follow a religion

[raminnazari]

I am not hating on Christianity, but is having an IQ of 40 the only requirement to become a pastor?

[LTamazil]

"is that steve jobs?" that just made me lose it.

[firetarrasque]

I love John Stewart.
Though we should appreciate that it's a relatively recent religion. Not young, but in the grand scale, barely over two thousand years old.

[shirleyvz]

I hope that robot preacher is kidding

Jeremiah 33.3
33.3 Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and shew thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not.

[rafay]

lmao, this is straight out of Futurama. The church of robotology

[Knifymoloko]

Klepper doesn`t make me cringe anymore. Kudos to him. All hail Flying Spaghetti Monster (FSM)!

[adamk]

as soon as he said robots, i thought of the robo-preacher from futurama

[daninyman]

Am i the only who caught that he said "robots are created, they cant have faith"
Hm.

[AndreThompson]

That was amazing. Props to Jordan and the writers. That was epic. Keep up the good work!

[thomasdidymus]

Jordan should still have his own show.

[Neightlive]

Sad to see young people still being fooled by this cult.

[neptuneroaming]

no one is touching my robot junk! Hahaha

[antred]

Ts ts tsk, doesn't creating sentient robots go against Christian doctrine? Isn't that basically sort of like playing God?

[AsSheLikesIt]

If you can program a robot conclude that 1+1=3 then yes, they can have faith too.

[firetarrasque]

Okay.
Sapient robots would be people, exactly as us. We should acknowledge them as people.

[hazukichanx]

I'll bet future generations of sentient synthetic beings will look back on ADAM and go, "That's an offensive-ass design, but the reasoning was spot on."

[DarkLordLinkOfficial]

Why do they *all* seem like they're trolling?

[adrianhorn]

11 And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.
12 Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for (the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.)
