If humans create an artificial 'being' with real intellect, and perhaps even real consciousness, have we created a being with a soul?
If so, has mankind made a mockery of God?
Has mankind become the Creator?

"How many years did you get?"
"30 with no chance of parole."
"Ouch! You must have had a real jerk for a Judge."
"Yeah, I drew one of those Justicemaster 3000s."
"You humans SHUT UP!"
"YES SIR!"
"I forgot that those Prisonmasters had such good hearing sensors."
"Yep. Your on his bad side now. Robot abusers have a rough time in here."
Think about it. If this post is any indication this scenario isn't too far in the future.

A second question to ask of those who think you should have the ability to torture, damage, or destroy a robot without responsibility or repurcussion. Would you say the same thing about your dog? Just curious.
