Q: Do robots have souls?

A: I understand that you are sad. I understand that this is a confusing time for you. I will make this very clear.

Robots do not have souls. They are just a pile of plastic and metal and wires and computer chips.

No matter how lifelike they appear, they are just machines. Machines don't have souls

I know I may have said things in the past that slightly contradicted that statement. I may have said things like, "Robots have souls." Things like, "Nothing beats a beautiful, robot wife." Things like, "You should marry this beautiful robot I made for you. It, she, totally has a soul and will love you forever."

So I see why you are confused. When I told you that robots had souls, and you should marry one, I had the best intentions. Everyone in town had married a robot. We were happy and content. We thought a real woman would never love us like a robot wife could.

That's before they opened that new girl's college. Those girls know how to party. They can love us in ways our robot wives never could. And they can do it again and  again, all night long. And we never have to clean them or worry about a short circuit. There's no threat of electrocution.

These real girls are better than our robot wives. That's why destroyed them. Now, it's your turn.

Your wife is a robot. She is a machine. She doesn't have a soul.

It's time to say goodbye.

Besides, you haven't cleaned her in months and she's really freaking out the girls. Some of them are starting to leave.

Please, do me a favor and destroy your soulless, robot wife and I promise I will totally make sure we bring a girl for you next time.
