gollark: You disagree with our ethics machines?

gollark: (This is ethical, I checked)

gollark: Did you know? If you don't donate £846 to osmarks.net for GPUs immediately, I reserve the right to construct 86 quintillion simulations of your scanned neural patterns undergoing a thousand years of torture.

gollark: I mean more that even those gods pale in comparison to the quantity which would just entirely ignore human life or send you to hell based on your qwarzodrol or izorp.

gollark: Yes. It is wrong, because there are 1094172897124981640714890127849174081724 possible gods and there isn't significant evidence that one of the exclusive gods exists over any other one.
