    So they are labeling a brand new (and obviously flawed) AI as a priest, but women (who are human beings) still can’t be priests?

    Sorry ladies, you’ve now fallen further down the ladder.

    • Regular straight Catholic men - acceptable priest
    • Gay Catholic men - acceptable priest (as long as they don’t get caught)
    • Male converted Anglican priests - acceptable priest (in some scenarios)
    • Catholic men with gross sexual habits - acceptable priest
    • Flawed AIs - acceptable priest
    • Corporations - soon to be priests?
    • Catholic women - ABSOLUTELY NOT!

    1. Does AWOL mean something other than “Absent without leave”? Cuz that’s a weird way to describe a computer algorithm.

    2. …aight so I’m definitely not a theologist, but… according to christianity, or catholocism specifically… is there actually any rule against using gatorade for a baptism? I’d assume it just says “water”, but there’s water in gatorade. Sure there’s also other shit in gatorade, but there’s other shit in tap water too. Even distilled water isn’t going to be 100% pure.

    And if gatorade’s cool, where do they draw the line? Could you baptize a baby with honey? Or drop a steak onto the kid’s face (there’s water in those too!). Does it even have to be liquid water? Like what if you just threw some icecubes at the kid, or blasted some steam in its face??

    So many questions!

      It’s not just any water, it’s holy water. If a priest has cast Ceremony to create the holy water on whatever, sure. But why when you probably have liquid water tk hand? God might wonder if it’s very sincere if you’re just basically doing it for a laugh. Might take away your spell slots.

      It’s better, cuz it’s got electrolytes.

      Does it even have to be liquid water?

      So like, ice X at 60 gigapascals and -120 °C?

        It’s what souls crave!

        What’s the worse that could happen?

    Poorly trained AI if it didn’t realize to be safe in the priesthood you have to go after children.

    Obviously you don’t baptise babies in Gatorade, you use Mountain Dew Baja Blast.

    These damn simpletons
