Robot 'Bible Scribe' Writes Out Good Book in Calligraphic Text
A trio of German artists are currently showing an installation in which a robotic arm transcribes, on scrolls of paper, the entire Bible in calligraphic text, according to Walyou.com.
Entitled 'bios [bible],' the installation aims to "correlate two cultural systems which are fundamental for societies today -- religion and scientific rationalism," according to the artists.
This work certainly has viable context in these days when Bible study groups meet on message boards, and the Good Book itself is available online in its entirety and in every conceivable translation and language.
That being said, Scripture and the avant-garde of technology have been bedfellows for much longer than this installation seems to let on. After all, if it weren't for one German's faith and technological savvy -- nearly six hundred years ago -- some of us would have never held a Bible in our hands.

What a complete waste of time, money and energy. The only thing the bible is good for is toilet paper. These guys must have a lot of free time. Meanwhile, their so-called "god" still inflicts disease, war and atrocity on the human race. Get a life you idiots.

Well said Doug,
dick in his infinite stupidity will realise when it is all to late for him and his kind.

Of course dick will have eternity to think about his Ignorant answer(s) in the lake of fire.
I will pray for you dick, so you and your kind will come to your senses before it's to late.

this is cool. pretty soon we can have mass produced artisticly calligraphed bibles that look like old scrolls, and they'll sell for cheap enough to buy. Way to go, dude.
