I imagine a huge mother ai with little drones that have decent agi. The mother ai can supplement the little guys. The mother would be the equivalent of what history, internet, books, and collective human knowledge does for humanity.

There is some pathfinder roleplaying game thought about how robots would be. If I remember correctly some robots became religious over their previous masters civilization and wanted to preserve the remnants until their creators come back. Others started emulating natural evolutionary processes such as weeding out the weak. They took a more pragmatic approach to life.

If not religion then at least philosophy or some kind of list of purpose and meaning.

For purposes of this thread, imagine that anything that has any probability of happening DOES happen in some alternate universe of the multiverse. Many Christians are willing to entertain the possibility of a multiverse, but what are the implications for Christian theology?

Here are a few thoughts to start:
- If Jesus CHOSE to be righteous in this universe then Jesus must have made the opposite choice in an alternate universe. Imagine Jesus bowing to Satan and becoming an enemy of the Father.
- If Christians CHOSE to believe then there is an alternate universe where they made the opposite choice.
- If God CHOSE this or that option then there are alternate universes where he chose differently.
- What is the person when alternate versions exist. Can we say God is righteous if he is only righteous in our universe and unrighteous in alternative universes? If God doesn't make a CHOICE to be righteous then is he truly righteous? And if God makes a choice then there must be alternate universes.

Just random thoughts. I am certain that people will have other thoughts (hopefully).

One possible variation on this idea is in this discussion:

Could the prophet Elijah have altered history if he had NOT........

and in this one as well.....

Multiverse Theory and multiple Ezekiel 37 type events.
