Quotes from Robert Geraci, Apocalyptic AI: Visions of Heaven in
Robotics,
Artificial Intelligence, and Virtual Reality
p. 133 "Ray Kurzweil believes that intelligent machines will be more
spiritual than human being and believes that the future will
include real
and virtual houses of worship where intelligent machines will
congregate
(Kurzweil 1999, 153). Naturally, since all human mental phenomena
are, from
Kurzweil's point of view, computational processes, religious
experiences
must be as well. "
p. 133-134 "Some human being, however, might welcome robots into
their
religious communities and some robots might wish to join them.
Fundamentally, if robots become conscious and, thereafter, acquire
'beliefs', a state that involves intentionality and meaning, then
some of
those beliefs will surely be religious. Both theologians and
computer
scientists have supported such a view, including Anne Foerst,
David Levy,
and Edmund Furse."
p. 134 "The artificial intelligence researcher David Levy has
argued that
robots will join in religious practices as a necessary by-product
of their
emotional range and conscious beliefs."
p. 134 "Without doubt, the interest that computer scientists have
in the
religious life of robots is fascinating but the fact that
theologians have
engaged robotics is considerably more so."

Alberto.
Religious beliefs will be programmed just as they are in most humans.
That kind of things will happen for any type of beliefs, with human
and machines, as long as we tolerate the argument per authority, and
lack trust or faith. The kind of faith anyone can develop by looking
inward.
