Robot Priests? Poem by Ray Lucero

Robot Priests?



500 years after Martin Luther's reformation there is a new reformation in Germany.

The Germans are intelligent, resourceful and technology oriented over achievers who like cream in a milk bucket always rise to the top.

They have recently created a robot priest capable of wondrous acts. This Jesus 2.0 has glowing hands that send light beams out to bless the masses. His soothing resonate voice can mesmerize anyone listening.

Other than software upgrades he doesn't sleep, eat or poop.
Light dusting and a little soap and water keeps this mechanical marvel bright and shiny.

Jesus 2.0 can be mass produced for global distribution.

The best part of all;
Free of ego, narcissism and need for power he readily accepts everyone, and has absolutely no need to molest choir boys...

The Vatican has launched a protest for obvious reasons.
