The Quest for Saint Aquin II

It can't be true-it can't. A robot savior?
A saint from the machine? Yes, uncorrupt,
But robots only mimic learned behavior
And have no fallen sin that can erupt
To spoil what has been created. No;
For man created him, and therefore he
Cannot be better than what made him so;
Yet if a perfect God created me,
May not, by miracle or blessed chance,
His hand infuse a metalworked machine
To raise mankind out of its fallen stance
And offer it a hope to be made clean?
The flesh, if it is flesh, is preserved whole,
But what may I declare about his soul?
