This is brilliant, assuming a deity who doesn't mind outsourcing of prayers, and grants buffs!
Omg ok so this gave me an idea for a young adult novel where there’s a robot uprising and the guy who programmed all the robots is your average godfearing guy who loves Jesus and doesn’t talk back to his mom even when she’s a little overbearing and so anyway based on something his mom told him he decides when he’s inventing all the robots that he will put in a subroutine that makes the robots kneel before the cross and eventually somebody figures it out and tries to stop the metal ones from taking over but it doesn’t work and the guy figures it’s because they didn’t hold the cross as a “true believer” with real faith etc so in the end he makes a glowing cross and leads the people to stop the robots because he gets on TV and they see the cross and all stop their killing and kneel, but was it because of true faith or because the cross had to be glowy?(that’s the moral ambiguous part that the teens who read the book will discuss at their youth groups and stuff) anyway this idea will be huge like Left Behind series
