I think that the idea of reducing Christ, or the Vicar of Christ, the Pope, to a man made machine is perfectly in line with the present self centered, I want it my way, techno age in which we are all living. The idea that a man made Robot could be a source of grace to mankind is absurd. It brings to mind the familiar imagery of the Israelites as they busily constructed their Golden Calf. You have God on the one hand, trying to help his poor people, and the poor people busy trying to help themselves. That the present self help program involves robotic images of the Vicar of Christ is a crude analog to the thought an actions of a distant but similarly rebellious and Godless age.
