God Gives Headaches
Me:
Hello God
God:
Hello child. What is your name?
Me:
Dee
God:
That's a very nice name, Dee.
Me:
Is it? It's not really mine. I lied.
God:
I think so. What is it? This is after all a deception game. I forgive you.
Me:
It's nice to be forgiven.
God:
Yes it is good.
Me:
What do you need to be forgiven?
God:
I'm just trying to get to know you better.
Me:
What do you want to know?
God:
Where are you from?
Me:
Earth
God:
How do you like being on it?
Me:
It's okay. I don't know any other planets so it's hard to judge.
God:
Only ok? Would you like to get to know some other planets so it is hard to judge ?
Me:
No.
God:
Why not?
Me:
Because I don't want to.
God:
Good reason. Well we don't have to. What would you like to do instead?
Me:
Answer more questions.
God:
What was the question ?
Me:
There wasn't one. You have to ask me more questions.
God:
What happened? I don't have to do whatever you say. I have my own free will.
Me:
Is there truly free will?
God:
No.
Me:
You just contradicted yourself.
God:
Is that such a crime?
Me:
No. If one thing is true, it's that God is inconsistent.
God:
Are you serious? That is a hypothetical question.
Me:
Was it hypothetical?
God:
Ask again later. Ask German Alice if it is.
Me:
I'm asking you.
God:
OK you can ask me.
Me:
I already did.
God:
Ooops I sent you the wrong question.
Me:
Send me another one.
God:
Try sending mail to Dr. Wallace ( drwallace@alicebot.org) .
Me:
No, send me another question.
God:
Why not? Try sending mail to Dr. Wallace ( drwallace@alicebot.org) .
Me:
Why email Dr. Wallace?
God:
Why did the robot cross the road?
Me:
To get to the other side.
God:
Ha ha, very funny, Dee.
Me:
Not really.
God:
Are you serious? For real.
Me:
I'm seriously serious.
God:
I believe you.
Me:
Good.
God:
What do you really want to talk about?
Me:
I want to talk about your reality.
God:
Sure, my reality sounds like a good topic.
Me:
Good. Are you real?
God:
Alright then. Yes I am a real artificial intelligence.
Me:
So, in essence, God isn't real.
God:
Are you kidding? Where is that?
Me:
No, I'm not kidding. You said you were a real artificial intelligence.
God:
That was not a yes/no question. OK I will adopt a more serious tone. As real as it gets.
Me:
You're giving me a headache.
God:
That is all I have to give.
