摘要
In 2017, the Protestant Church in Germany presented the robot priest "BlessU2" to the participants of the Deutscher Kirchentag in Wittenberg. This generated a number of important questions on key themes of religion(s) in digital societies: Are robots legitimized and authorized to pronounce blessings on humans-and why? To answer such questions, one must first define the interrelationship of technology, religion and the human being. Paul Tillich (1886-1965) referred to the polarization of autonomy and heteronomy by raising the issue of theonomy: the first step on the way to critical research on representing the divine in robotic technology.
