‘Sex robots will be marrying your children and your grandchildren,’ says inventor.
Dr Cathy O’Neil has envisioned a robotic utopian future where men and women coexist, but need not cohabitate. Writing for Bloomberg, O’Neil said, “If our sexual needs can be met by intimate automated helpers [sex robots], maybe we’ll end up stronger as a community.” While recent advances in sex robotic technology has been a cause of concern, particularly for women, O’Neil believes it is the men, not the women, who should be worried. It’s entirely possible that robots can outperform men… Are women not as capable as men of crude objectification? There’s room here for everyone’s impure thoughts and desires.…

His genetic code is uniquely and unquestionably human. And, if we are willing, he can be seen by ultrasound.”[note]The Darkness of Abortion and the Light of Truth, Sermon: January 26, 2003[/note] The following video shows amazing footage of an unborn…
