Good God! Threads like this are why I love you people! 
Would this be progressing towards deus ex machina or machina ex deus?
Nah. Machina ex deus would be RoboJesus.
“Go forth and crash no more…”

I get this image of RoboPope on the balcony at St. Peter’s Square…

“Dead or alive, you’re coming with me.”
BWHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!! AHAHAHAHAH!!! Some memorable quotes here! AHAHAHA!!!
RoboPope. ::Snort::
“Somewhere, there is a sin happening.”
“Freeze, heathen!”
Great. If I had any Photoshop skills, I’d have to go make a picture just to get it out of my head. But I don’t, so I’ll have to stick with rambling descriptions. I’m imagining ol’ Robo with the big hat, whipping a crucifix out of the leg holster, setting rosaries afire betwixt his mighty fingers with sheer speed and power.
So, does the pope shit in the woods?
Just fit him with an Ethernet Adapter.
RoboPope shits on the bears… 
I’ve always been envious of the pope-mobile. I must admit I want for for myself. However, I must say there another custom built pope accoutrement that I most certainly never wish to find myself in, and I need all members of the SDMB to solemnly swear to put me out of my misery should I be found in a pope-highchair. Really now… unable to stand, or even support himself in an ordinary chair, the pope’s trainers must have had this horrific device built and now strap him into it at every opportunity. There he sits, papers strewn about the tray, and if I understood Itali-polish or whatever language it is he speaks, I know I’d hear him say, “Please, the indignity is too much, get me out of this thing you fuckers!”
Let the poor geezer retire and spend his last few days (literally) at the beach ogling the girls.
RoboPope 2.0 has the ability to TRANSFORM into the POPEMOBILE!!!
