A brief moment of hilarity

Because I have a sense of humor (and the hour is late, it is possible that my good sense already went to bed), I thought I would re-post this old treasure from long-forgotten blogging days:

Last night, I discovered iGod, a chat bot that simulates a conversation with God. I don't currently have any burning questions for the Big Guy, but I'm amused by this new discovery. Here's how my last conversation went with iGod:

Me:
hello
God:
Hello friend. What is your name?
Me:
Bridget
God:
Welcome to my chat room, Bridget.
Me:
Thank you. Are you busy?
God:
you are quite welcome. I am just doing my job.
Me:
Me, too. Do you know what time of year it is?
God:
I'm glad we agree, Bridget. Sometimes I think time is giant screw.
Me:
Can you explain?
God:
There is no more information to clarify.
Me:
You said time is a giant screw.
God:
Did I really say that?
Me:
Yes.
God:
Oh well I say a lot of silly things somethimes.
Me:
So I gather. How do you feel about Christmas?
God:
Give me a break. That's good information: Bridget said gather. A holiday on December 25 celebrating the birth of Jesus Christ.
Me:
Are you the Christian God?
God:
Yes I am the one and only Christian God.
Me:
Why aren't you a pagan god?
God:
Being a pagan god is not part of my programming.
Me:
That's unfortunate.
God:
Thanks for explaining it.

I know, this is neither profound nor original, but it is amusing (for what it's worth). I mean, it's a common stereotype that programmers and the like consider themselves to be god. I just think it's funny that someone took that extra step and programmed a "god" bot.
